2 pairs of handmade candles from Stockholms ljusstöperi.

Before the days of kerosene and electric light, a nightlight was a practical object used to move between dark rooms. It was also used as a bedside lamp, just as its name suggests.

The candlestick has a lovely solid feel. Untreated brass. Height 110mm, diameter 100mm.

Wall lamp from around 1800. Tin-plate lamps and sconces were common in many homes during the 18th and 19th centuries throughout Sweden. Often, like this one, they had a simple shape with a dotted pattern of beads and flowers.

Gives a pleasant glow with its tinted surface. One of the special features of this particular lamp is that when the light has burned down to a short stub, a shadow angel appears on the wall behind, with curly hair and wings that move when the flame flutters.
