RARE ILLUMS BOLIGHUS (DEN M ARK) MID-20TH CENTURY VINTAGE PAIR COBALT BLUE. PAINTED, LATHE- TURNED WOOD. Mid-20th century vintage Danish Modern painted woodenware & decorative wood accessories. 7 ¼” Height x 2″ top Diameter x 1 ¾ base Diameter. Offered for your review and consideration is this outstanding pair of cobalt blue painted, curvilinear wood candlesticks by the Danish Modern designer Illums Bolighus, with their original brass insert liners. The wooden sidewalls don’t suffer from any nicks, dings, dents, abrasions or scuffs. The interior wax reservoir basins are also free of built-up wax and the brass insert sleeves are largely clean and free of excess, dried, built-up candle wax. The forms are lovely and the rich, vibrant, saturated cobalt blue color, merge and combine to create memorable Modernist wooden candlesticks, where form and beauty spar in what appears to be a stand-off in their duel of conceptual hierarchy. In other words, their incredibly beautiful forms are nearly exceeded by the exquisite beauty of their unusual, arresting color but not quite. A formal equilibrium exists between the approach to surface and form, making these veritable Modernist masterpieces. Handsome and then some. Very Good to Excellent overall vintage condition.
