Pair of Zoégas Kaffe candlesticks in solid brass, Sweden 1976

Pair of solid brass candlesticks produced in Sweden in 1976 to celebrate the centenary of the Zoégas coffee house (1886–1976). These promotional items were made in a minimalist spirit typical of 1970s Scandinavian design, featuring a geometric construction composed of stacked cylindrical volumes. Each candlestick consists of a solid cylindrical base extended by a central stem and a cup designed to hold the candle. The entire piece is turned in brass and presents a simple and functional aesthetic, characteristic of Nordic modernism from this period. The base bears the engraving "Zoégas Kaffe 1886–1976" as well as the brand logo. These candlesticks belong to a series produced in three different sizes, forming a complete set. Complete sets are now sought after by collectors of vintage Scandinavian design.
