DESCRIPTION:
Jens Quistgaard is known for his many designs for Dansk, most notably his
pepper grinders. His candle holders though, are arguably his most sculpural
pieces. He considered himself a sculptor first and formost and its easy
to see why after seeing this piece. Definitely one of our favorites,
the Festival design is a radical form that holds 12 tiny taper candles.
Its arms scoop upward from a central cone and also form the base on
which it sits. This piece would make a statement on any table or mantle
and would be a great addition to any Quistgaard collection.
