Designer: Karl Hagenauer (1898 – 1956) or Franz Hagenauer (1906 – 1986)

Item: Candlestick or chamberstick

Manufactured by: Werkstätte Hagenauer

Country of origin: Austria

Year made: 1930s

Materials: Polished brass

Dimensions:  5” x 5 ½”

Condition: Very good.  This appears to have been dropped a couple of times and as a result there are two very slight uneven sections of the tray.  Some small spots of aging discoloration that do not detract.  The flash from the photo makes them appear more promonent then they are.

Description: An elegant and beautiful tri-footed art deco design by Hagenauer.  Heavy brass construction that has developed a beautiful mellow patina from age.  This is a scare item.  We have seen only one other come into the marketplace that sold at auction in 2010 for $350.  Marked on the bottom “wHw”, Made in Austria”, “Hagenauer Wien”.
