Hermès Paris Art Deco Silver-Plated Candelabra – Five-Light Design
This striking five-light silver-plated candelabra is a rare and substantial piece signed Hermès Paris, embodying the elegance and luxury of French Art Deco design. Crafted with precision and weighty presence, it features faceted geometric arms and holders in a strong architectural style, echoing the finest traditions of 1930s modernist metalwork. The base and arms are finely executed in a five-sided form, with a lustrous silver finish that reflects expert craftsmanship. A true statement piece, this candelabra is both functional and collectible, making it ideal for display in refined interiors or as a centerpiece for formal dining.
More than just a lighting element, this candelabra exemplifies the Art Deco movement's fascination with symmetry, luxury materials, and bold geometric abstraction. The use of angular faceting and strong silhouettes recalls the streamlined elegance seen in the works of Puiforcat and Jean Després, yet its signature from Hermès Paris elevates it to a realm of exclusive provenance. Pieces of this quality and scale rarely surface, particularly with such a distinguished maker’s mark—making this a significant acquisition for collectors of fine French decorative arts and 20th-century design.
