Piet Hein

Jacksons Design AB, Stockholm, 2005

Overall good condition. Please note there are two candelabrums in this offering and only one is illustrated in the catalogue. The non-illustrated candelabrum is slightly smaller in scale and identical in form. The patinated surface with some occasional light surface scratches, light rubbing and surface soiling to the recessed contour of the design consistent with age and gentle use. The candle holders with surface dirt, oxidation and remnants of wax. The recessed areas with some evidence of polish residue. The top surface of the bases with a few concentrated areas of wear. The top surface of the bases with a few concentrated areas of rubbing and discoloration. The underbase of one of the candelabra is covered with felt. The other shows the original screws to the underbase. A sculptural form and emblematic design.
