Candleholder (2) - Copper, Bronze - the Amsterdam School

Two large ecclesiastical candlesticks from circa 1940 to 1950, executed in Dutch Art Deco style with influences from the Amsterdam School. The candlesticks have a heavy and architectural design, with broad clock-shaped bases, bowl-shaped candle holders, and decorative brass details. The dark patinated metal forms a beautiful contrast with the gold-colored accents. The design recalls the metalwork of Jan Eisenloeffel. This is a stylistic indication and not an official attribution. On each candlestick there is a large decorative candle. These candles are hollowed at the top, so a smaller candle can be placed inside and replaced. Without a candle, each candlestick is 45 cm high. With the large candle, the total height is approximately 107 cm. There is also a plate on which you can place an extra candle to be used in the candlestick. Both candlesticks have a nice aging patina and normal signs of use, matching their age and ecclesiastical origin. The candlesticks are offered as a set of two. Please also see the photos as part of the description.
