ABOUT PRODUCTID 35375
This set of seven silver-plated candlesticks, designed by Carl M. Cohl for the Danish manufacturer Atla in the 1960s, exemplifies the distilled forms of mid-century modern and minimalist aesthetics. Each candlestick features a compact, low profile with an asymmetrical triangular dish and a centrally placed cylindrical candle holder. The surface, finished in a slightly warm, satin silver, creates a subtle sheen, while three slender, outwardly splayed legs lend a sense of lightness and sculptural presence. The color palette is uniform, with no additional decoration or embellishment, and the gently curved, smooth edges echo the design language of the era. The authenticity of the set is confirmed by the signature. Condition: good, with localized patina and faint scratches typical of 1960s pieces, gently polished and refreshed, preserved in original condition. The price refers to the complete set of seven pieces.
The form of these candlesticks is a clear voice of Danish modernism—a time when design was meant to evoke calm, not impose, but to quietly enhance everyday life. The cool yet soft silver surface speaks of respect for material, while the low proportions and restrained lines suggest that candlelight should remain a subtle accent rather than the main attraction. These candlesticks evoke memories of evenings where minimalism was not just an aesthetic choice, but a philosophy—a balance between form and function.
This set could serve as a centerpiece on a dining table or sideboard, especially in interiors echoing mid-century modern or minimalist Danish design. The candlesticks pair well with simple ceramic or glass vessels and light-toned natural wood. They could be combined with textiles in cool shades of grey or white, and other metallic
