ABOUT PRODUCTID 20202
This Belgian candlestick from the 1970s exemplifies Space Age design, featuring a lightweight aluminum frame plated with brass that forms a closed, circular ring base for two candle plates. The plates, made of matte black plastic, are equipped with pins to stabilize candles and finished with a thin gold rim that echoes the central, glossy metal structure. Positioned at different heights and slightly offset from each other, the plates create a dynamic, asymmetrical silhouette. The smooth, golden surface of the frame contrasts with the light-absorbing matte finish of the plates, highlighting the geometric and futuristic nature of the piece. All components are original and complete, showing no signs of repair or restoration. The candlestick is preserved in very good condition, with only minimal, barely visible traces of use.The form of the candlestick reflects the era’s fascination with the future, when designers embraced metal and plastics to explore new aesthetics inspired by the space race. The rounded base ring hints at orbital paths, while the geometric harmony and polished gold surfaces capture the optimism and faith in progress typical of the 1970s. This object carries the echo of modernist interiors, where candlelight reflected on polished surfaces and conversed with minimalist architecture—a voice from a decade when futurism and functionality intertwined in a single, dynamic gesture.The candlestick may be paired with high-gloss lacquered
