Bauhaus-Inspired Three-Arm Candelabra in Chrome-Plated Metal
Germany, c. 1930 - 1950s
About This Piece
A sculptural three-arm candelabra defined by its stepped construction and restrained, geometric form. Built around a central vertical column, the arms extend in a tiered progression, creating a composition that feels both balanced and deliberate.
Executed in chrome-plated metal, the surface carries a cool, reflective clarity, catching the light across its planes and emphasising the precision of its structure. Free from ornament, the piece reflects a Bauhaus-inspired design language associated with German production, circa 1930s–1940s, where function, proportion, and this material are brought into quiet alignment.
Examples of this form are seldom encountered, lending the piece a distinct and quietly singular presence.
With its considered scale and a weight of 1.4 kg, it offers a reassuring sense of solidity while retaining a refined, architectural clarity — equally suited to a dining table, console, or a curated shelf.
A quietly architectural object, where form is resolved through structure and light.
