The patinated candelabra pair is attributed to Hugo Berger (known as Goberg). Berger produced decorative metal and ironwork designs using traditional techniques; his work was carried by retailers including Liberty and Company of London and Metz & Company in the Netherlands.

The simple and substantial dark patinated metal makes an ideal accent for an Arts and Crafts, rustic, or industrial interior. Each candelabra measures 12.25 in. H x 12 in. W x 4.75 in. diameter (at base) and bears a GERMANY mark (circled in images 6 and 7). Good condition with some typical wear to the patina, particularly inside the candle cups. which shows some corrosion and patina loss, presumably from cleaning. See less
