ABOUT PRODUCTID 15588
This Swedish brass candleholder, attributed to Walter Andersson for Ystad Metall in the 1950s, is crafted entirely from brass in a gently muted golden hue with a satin finish. The structure consists of five evenly spaced candle cups positioned along a delicately arched base, with gently curving arms supporting subtly flared holders, each equipped with a round drip tray. The silhouette is defined by clear geometry and seamless construction—hallmarks of the precise craftsmanship associated with Ystad Metall. The surface is smooth, displaying only discreet traces of patina typical of mid-century vintage objects, and the overall condition is very good, remaining fully functional and collectible. The form of this candleholder carries the spirit of Scandinavian Modernism, where simplicity is born not from austerity but from a pursuit of harmony in daily life. Every curve and profile recalls 1950s Sweden—a period of postwar renewal, fascination with light, and appreciation for subtle decoration that enhances rather than overtakes a space. The golden brass surface softly reflects the ambient light, reminiscent of Nordic sunlight that graces interiors sparingly; the candleholder itself becomes a gentle reminder that light and ritual are sources of everyday tranquility. Placed on a console or elongated dining table, this piece can be paired with ceramics in subdued tones, simple glassware, or marble accents. It could be combined with other Scandinavian-style accessories, such as minimalist vases or taper candles, as well as with lightwood mid-century furnishings suited to collector's interiors. The brass gold also lends itself to more eclectic arrangements, where it becomes a subtle focal point, enriching the ambiance without overwhelming it.
