This HEMSLOJDEN Scandinavian folk art candlestick candelabra was made in Boras, Sweden. The design is reminiscent of flowers and this candelabra style is rare. It was originally painted white, the paint has chipped to showcase the beauty of the natural wood, and give it historical charm. Metal is used for the stems and it has a patina.

The item is vintage and has been used. One flower shows fire damage. The candle holder inside several other flowers has charred wood. The connections at the base and the metal at the shaft are wobbly. Based on the charred wood and the wobbliness, I recommend this item is for decoration only and not hold lit candles. It is not listed under candle holders for those reasons.

It has Scandinavian charm, it shows vintage history, and it has a curious ‘what happened?’ story that creates conversations and we can guess at.
