Superb totem-shaped candlestick made of solid wood, turned in the 1960s-1970s. This sculptural piece, measuring 40 cm, stands out for its complex turning work, alternating between biconical sections, spheres, and deep grooves, creating a captivating and highly graphic visual rhythm. THE STYLE: Right in the midst of the Mid-Century Modern movement, this candlestick evokes the organic creations of designers like Charlotte Perriand or Scandinavian brutalist work. Its totemic silhouette makes it a "statement" piece, ideal for accentuating a teak sideboard or a contemporary farmhouse table. MATERIALS AND PATINA: Made from a dense wood (probably Oregon pine or stained mango), it features a deep honey patina with beautiful flame-like grain. It is topped with a central steel spike, designed to hold large diameter candles. CONDITION: Excellent vintage condition. The wood is sound, with no cracks or restorations. Stable and heavy.
