Holmegaard Amor Vintage Danish Clear Glass Candle Holder

This listing is for one candle holder but we have two similar items.

This rare model is called 'Amor' and was designed by Michael Bang in 1978. It is part of his 'Mythical Gods' series of the late 1970s.

Authentic, original, superb quality handmade item.

An elegant, timeless design that epitomises the Scandinavian aesthetic. 

Holds a dinner/tapered candle. The one in the photos is approximately 22mm at its widest point.

Signed/etched 'HG MB' (Holmegaard Michael Bang) to the base.

Made by Holmegaard in Denmark in the late 1970s.

Very solid - weighs over 600g.

Approximately 14cm high, 10cm wide at the base and 7cm wide at the rim.

Excellent vintage condition - no chips, just a few signs of age such as small scratches.

Michael Bang (1944-2013) was a leading Danish ceramist and designer who worked for Royal Copenhagen before joining Holmegaard in 1967 and becoming its lead designer of the late 1970s until he retired in 2000.

__________________________________________________

Note that we have attempted to show and state the condition as accurately as possible but this is a pre-loved, vintage item and some minor signs of age and/or use are to be expected.

Handmade items may have slight imperfections, such as air bubbles in glass and glazing imperfections in ceramics, which add to their uniqueness and charm.

There may also be slight variations in the colours shown due to lighting, the camera lens and the device the image is viewed through.
