Paire de pique-cierges Art Déco, patine verte et anneaux cuivrés

Le vert domine, un vert pâle et marbré qui gagne la coupe, le fût et le pied. Chaque pique-cierge s'élève en gradins nets : une base bombée, un fût cylindrique ceint de trois anneaux aux tons de cuivre, puis une large coupe évasée d'où pointe la broche. Les anneaux, plus sombres et plus lisses, captent la lumière en fines lignes horizontales, tandis que la surface verte, criblée et mate, la retient. Basses et larges, les deux pièces se répondent comme deux colonnes tronquées.

Le pique-cierge, chandelier qui retient le cierge sur une pointe, a une longue histoire dans le bronze : de petites paires du XVIIIe siècle, hautes de 24 cm, à fût arrondi, se démontent par un pas de vis. Au XXe siècle, la forme se plie au goût nouveau, et certains pique-cierges Art déco associent le bronze massif à la bakélite, matériau mis au point entre 1907 et 1909. Le style lui-même tient son nom de l'Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes, à Paris, en 1925. Aucun fondeur, aucune marque ni aucun usage d'origine ne sont indiqués pour cette paire.

Read in English

Green dominates, a pale, marbled green that covers the dish, the shaft and the foot. Each pricket rises in clean steps: a domed base, a cylindrical shaft girdled by three copper-toned rings, then a wide flared dish from which the spike points up. The rings, darker and smoother, catch the light in fine horizontal lines, while the pitted, matt green surface holds it. Low and broad, the two pieces answer each other like a pair of truncated columns.

The pricket, a candlestick that holds the candle on a spike, has a long history in bronze: small eighteenth-century pairs, 24 cm high, with rounded shafts, come apart on a screw thread. In the twentieth century the form bent to the new taste, and some Art Deco prickets pair solid bronze with Bakelite, a material developed between 1907 and 1909. The style itself takes its name from the Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes held in Paris in 1925. No founder, mark or original use is recorded for this pair.
