    Description

    A very elegant pair of contemporary decorative blown glass candlesticks, in keeping with the tradition of "Venetian-style" glassware that circulated throughout Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries and was widely adopted in the decorative arts of the Grand Siècle, during the Baroque period.

    The slender silhouette rests on a circular, domed base, broadly flared and gadrooned, surmounted by a baluster stem with rhythmic bulges—a formal vocabulary directly inherited from the blown glass candlesticks and tableware produced in Murano and subsequently imitated in the major European glassmaking centers (France, the Netherlands, Bohemia).

    This type of composition, alternating solid and delicate lines, is characteristic of the 17th-century Baroque aesthetic, which sought verticality, elegance, and plays of light.

    Comparable antique pieces are held in public collections and regularly offered at auction, particularly stemmed glasses and candlesticks in the "Venetian style" featuring the same domed base and baluster stem.

    These candlesticks represent a high-end, contemporary interpretation of these antique models, faithful to their proportions and decorative spirit, while benefiting from modern glassblowing techniques that offer beautiful transparency and excellent legibility of form.

    They have been converted into lamps:
    new and fully removable electrical fittings allow the candlesticks to be restored to their original function without altering the glass.

    Custom-made conical lampshades, upholstered in 18th-century-inspired floral fabric in soft, balanced tones, harmoniously emphasize the vertical lines of the pieces.

    These lamps will find their place naturally in a classic or 18th-century interior, but also in a contemporary setting seeking an elegant and decorative historical reference.

    Dimensions:
    Total height: 50 cm
    Height of the candle holder alone: 33 cm
    Diameter of the candle holder base: 16.5 cm
    Diameter of the lampshades: 30 cm
