Up for auction/sale is a stunning, authentic matching pair of Mid-Century Modern Brutalist brass candlesticks crafted by the renowned artisan Wainberg in Israel during the 1960s.
These pieces feature the iconic, heavily textured "molten" metal design characteristic of the mid-century Israeli art brass movement. They are substantial, heavy cast pieces that sit firmly on abstract, organic bases.
Dual-Authenticated Markings: - Top side of both bases prominently displays the cast textured "JERUSALEM" hallmark. - Underside of both bases is cleanly stamped with "WAINBERG" and "ISRAEL".
Condition Notes: Excellent vintage condition with a beautiful, deep, untouched original antique gold patina. No cracks, major dents, or structural damage. Minor superficial signs of age/use appropriate for 60-year-old metalware. The interior candle cups may retain tiny remnants of historic wax. We have left the patina exactly as found, as collectors heavily prefer the unpolished, authentic aged look.
Please review all high-resolution photos carefully as they serve as the primary indicator of visual condition. Ready to ship securely packed.
