Absolutely Stunning Art Nouveau / Art Deco Candlestick from the Plateelbakkerij Zuid-Holland Factory (Gouda). c1924, by artist Hendrik van Wensveen.
Researching the history of Gouda Pottery has been so very interesting. Here is a link, if you do find yourself wanting some history. http://www.goudadesign.co.uk/page1.html
This highly collectible piece of pottery would be a welcome addition to any collection. These pieces were made for use and this piece will surely not disappoint.
It is done in very warm rich tones of black, orange, golden yellow, blue and an crackled aqua color. It stands 8.75"T and the base is 5"D. The hole for the taper __candle would be slightly larger than today's traditional taper, measuring at 1"D.
For it's age, this piece is in great, vintage condition. There is a chip to the top edge, and it appears that someone tried to disguise it by shading it? You can see it in the last photograph. There is some crazing and some mild hairline fractures on the underside of the base. The price has been adjusted accordingly.
We have some other lovely home decor items listed here:
