Italian Brass Candleholder by Antonella Saviato - 1960s

A beautifully sculptural brass candleholder designed by Antonella Saviato in Italy during the 1960s, inspired by the graceful form of blooming iris flowers. Three elegantly curved blossoms rise from a cluster of flowing leaves, transforming a functional object into a striking botanical sculpture. Cast in solid brass with a warm golden patina, the piece reflects the poetic character of mid-century Italian design, where nature and craftsmanship merge in expressive, organic forms. Whether holding candles or displayed on its own, it possesses a strong decorative presence from every angle. Equally suited to Hollywood Regency, Mid-Century Modern, or eclectic interiors, this rare candleholder celebrates the romantic elegance and sculptural artistry that made Italian decorative objects of the period so enduringly desirable. 29cm high, approx. 18cm diameter
