1920s Art Deco - Candelabrum (2) - Silver plated brass

Art Deco Silver-Plated Brass Candelabra Pair (3-Armed) A striking pair of high-end quality Art Deco candelabra, crafted in solid brass and finished with a silver-plated surface. These geometric three-armed candleholders embody the powerful architectural aesthetic of the late 1920s and 1930s, echoing the stepped forms and streamline geometry that defined the era. With their tiered, almost skyscraper-like silhouettes and strong vertical emphasis, they reflect the influence of both French Art Deco and early Machine Age design. Their sculptural presence makes them perfect for a refined interior: from a modernist sideboard to an atmospheric dining setting. The candelabra show the characteristic weight and craftsmanship of period metalwork, standing confidently on four cubical feet with beautifully proportioned stepped arms. Dimensions: 25 x 19 x 10 cm (h x w x d) Combined weight: approx. 2.15 kg Material: Brass, silver-plated Period: 1920s–1930s Origin: Europe Condition: In good vintage condition with wear consistent with age; surface patina and plating wear visible in places, adding authentic character. Please see the photos for a precise impression. Historical context: Art Deco metalwork of the interwar years was heavily inspired by the rise of modern architecture and the fascination with symmetry, geometry, and industrial precision. Decorative objects from this period often used stepped or layered forms, referencing the monumental silhouettes of contemporary architecture such as American skyscrapers and Parisian pavilions from the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs. A sculptural and elegant pair, ideal for collectors of Art Deco metalwork or for creating a dramatic decorative statement in any interior.
