This minimalist three-light table candelabra, produced in Belgium in the 1970s, embodies the hallmarks of mid-century modern design influenced by the post-Brussels movement. The piece is constructed from matte black-painted aluminum, with polished brass detailing on the candle holders and small spherical feet. Its asymmetrical architecture features three arms at varying heights, converging at a central hub and supported by three angled legs, which enhance its architectural and functional qualities. The photographs reveal smooth surfaces, precisely exposed joints, and a striking contrast between the dark frame and glossy, gold-toned brass. The candelabra provides stability and accommodates three candles at once, combining practical function with decorative presence. The condition is good – minor traces of use are visible on the black frame, and a gentle patina on the brass elements substantiates its authenticity and period.
The stark aluminium silhouette, graphic in its use of black and economically ornamented with brass, quietly speaks to the modernist approach to tabletop décor of the 1970s. The candelabra seems to echo an era where simplicity and purpose went hand in hand – every element, from the geometric armature to the gleaming brass spheres, is intentionally placed. In candlelight, reflections play on the golden details, evoking the convivial atmosphere of vintage dinner gatherings, where design and function are seamlessly intertwined.
For arrangements, the candelabra could be paired with a modern wooden or veneered dining table, as well as minimalist glass or ceramic vessels to accentuate its material contrasts. It would work well within a mid-century modern space or an eclectic collector’s interior. Consider blending it with accents in black, gold, or natural wood and geometric lighting fixtures to achieve a balanced, distinctive look, where the candelabra stands as a functional, architectural focal point for the table.
