Sculptural Art Deco Ceramic Candle Holder, 1920s–30s

A charming Art Deco ceramic candle holder by Goebel, 1920s/30s, Germany. The candle cup is flanked by a stylized greyhound figure, its looping form giving the piece a sense of movement and whimsy typical of the period. Finished in a soft glaze in muted tones of blue-grey and sand, with rust-brown accents breaking through. A playful, decorative piece equally suited to daily use or display on its own.
