Large collection of 21 cylindrical brass candleholders by Colseth, Norway, produced in a graduated range of heights.
Reduced to an exceptionally simple tubular form, the individual pieces can be arranged freely, transforming the group into an architectural composition reminiscent of a small abstract skyline.
The polished brass retains natural oxidation, scratches and variations accumulated through use, giving each cylinder a subtly different surface and tone.
Norway, c. 1960s–70s.
21 pieces.
Heights approximately 4–25 cm.
One measured example: Ø 7 × H 4 cm.
