Walter Von Nessen, an influential industrial designer, created notable pieces for Chase Brass & Copper Co. in the 1930s, including their now-iconic copper candlesticks. Known for pioneering modernist design in household objects, Von Nessen's candlesticks for Chase embraced the sleek, minimalist lines characteristic of the Art Deco and Bauhaus movements. His work with Chase produced candlesticks that were both functional and sculpturally elegant.
Von Nessen’s designs were groundbreaking at the time, moving away from ornate styles and introducing streamlined, geometric forms that reflected modernist ideals. These pieces became widely popular, as they represented a shift in American home decor toward contemporary style. Today, his Chase candlesticks are highly collectible, valued for their timeless aesthetic and historical significance in American industrial design.
