A bold and highly sculptural example of Scandinavian brutalist design, this exceptional seven-arm candelabra was designed by renowned Swedish designer Lars Bergsten for Gusums Bruk during the 1970s. Crafted entirely from solid brass, the piece embodies the raw materiality and expressive form associated with the brutalist movement, while retaining the refined balance characteristic of Swedish modern design. The asymmetrical seven-arm composition creates a striking architectural silhouette, allowing the candelabra to function equally as a decorative centerpiece and atmospheric lighting object. Each arm rises organically from the central structure, giving the piece movement and depth from every angle. The solid brass construction has developed a rich, warm patina over time, adding further character and authenticity to the design.
Whether placed on a dining table, sideboard, or mantelpiece, it introduces an unmistakable sense of sculptural presence and mid-century sophistication to an interior.
