About the Item

Pair of Swedish Late Gustavian Brass Candlesticks, Early 19th Century A refined pair of Swedish late Gustavian brass candlesticks, dating from the early 19th century. Executed in solid brass, these candlesticks embody the restrained elegance and classical clarity for which the Gustavian period in Sweden is celebrated. The design is simple yet assured, with balanced proportions, stepped circular bases, and slender columns crowned by understated drip pans. Their architectural purity reflects the neoclassical ideals that defined Swedish decorative arts at the turn of the 19th century, influenced by both French Empire aesthetics and local interpretations of antiquity. A beautifully preserved surface patina bears witness to over two centuries of use, lending warmth, depth, and historical presence to the brass. These subtle traces of age enhance their authenticity and charm, making them equally suitable as functional objects or sculptural accents within a refined interior. A timeless and elegant pair, representative of Swedish craftsmanship and the enduring appeal of the Gustavian tradition. Wear consistent with age and use.
