Karl Hagenauer Pair of Modernist Art Deco Silvered Bronze Candlesticks. This pair of Art Deco silvered bronze candlesticks, featuring  prancing deers, exemplifies Karl Hagenauer’s mastery of the Art Deco style. As an influential Austrian designer and goldsmith, Karl Hagenauer followed in the footsteps of his father, Carl Hagenauer, who founded Hagenauer Wien in 1898.

These sculptural candlesticks capture the essence of Hagenauer’s modernist design, sophistication, and quality. His avant-garde vision is evident in the seamless combination of form and material, showcasing his innovative approach and exceptional craftsmanship.

Hagenauer’s craftsmanship and  art stands as a captivating ode to the creativity and dynamism of the Roaring Twenties. Each finely detailed note echoes the spirit of the era, showcasing Hagenauer’s enduring influence in the world of Art Deco. Its marked authenticity with WHW and the atelier’s signature further cements its provenance, making it a remarkable piece from the golden age of Austrian design.
