a classic design with traditional elements of the scandinavian design. The high craftsmanship is shown in detail. Especially the materiality in the combination of the dark metal and the clear glass.

The upper degree is decorated with the traditional ornament of the three -leafed cloverlatt. At the lower area, the arms are bent at a right angle and ended with a bracket. The functional brackets serve to assemble the glasses. In this way, the glasses can be removed, cleaned or re -equipped. The glasses are designed as a shell at the top. Opposite a bulbous lower part. In the middle they rejuvenate to absorb the bracket. Inside the glasses there are removable metal inserts as a candle holder. The candlestick can be operated with normal candles and tea lights. The suspension is also forged. Three fine rods bundle in a special chop in which the actual chain is hung.
the candlestick is in very good condition and has hardly any signs of wear.
