About the Item
A rare and unique, hand-forged ecclesiastical floor candelabra originating from the Netherlands Amsterdam region, crafted between 1925 and 1938. Rooted in the spirit of Art Deco and Interbellum Liturgical Modernism, the piece combines sacred functionality with the sculptural clarity of early 20th-century Dutch metalwork.
The tall architectural structure, standing on three tapered feet, rises into an elegant crown of eight candle holders. Its balanced geometry, refined metalwork and subtle ornamental details reveal the influence of modernist church design from the interwar period where austerity, symbolism and craftsmanship merged into a serene visual language.
The beautifully aged patina enhances its sculptural presence, allowing it to function both as a historically significant liturgical artifact and as a striking interior statement piece.
A true unicum, exceptionally rare in both form and condition.
