Get the Look: 65 Modern Candlesticks and Candelabra

For years I’ve adored the Lucite pretzel knot candlesticks by Dorothy Thorpe—a decade ago I had stashed a tear that features one prominently, and I still have it. Lately I’ve been interested in brass candelabra with joints, as well as simple Danish candlesticks in teak or painted wood. There are tons of newer, contemporary ones too, like Muuto’s green raw wood candelabra and the chunky chrome or glass tubular pieces that refer back to the ’70s. Following up on yesterday’s Montage: 44 Rooms with Candlesticks & Candelabra, here’s a shopping guide for 65 different styles.

Montage: 44 Rooms with Candlesticks and Candelabras

Ever since I got back from my design trip to Copenhagen last fall, I’ve been really interested in candlesticks. Candles are a key element in Scandinavian interiors, the fire adding both warmth and light over the long winter months of shortened days. I fell for smooth, brightly colored wooden pairs in the airport outpost of the department store Illums Bolighus, and located a set on eBay when I got home. (More beat up than smooth, but very inexpensive.) A lot of these interiors are Scandinavian in style, though not all. I bet you will recognize some specific candle holders and candelabras below. Which can you identify?

Site Spotlight: Slanted Mansion • Photographer Siobhan Frost

I discovered Slanted Mansion on Sunday afternoon during a marathon Pinterest session. (Unfortunately I don’t remember where the clicking originated, or who I followed to get there.) Site creator Siobhan Frost photographs creative types in their homes and studios, and presents the pictures  with interviews edited by Sheena Coffey. The images have a rawness to them; the spaces are very lived in, very real. Not in the sense that there are dirty dishes in the sink and unmade beds; but the rooms  are not (or at least don’t seem to be) styled. Rather, they provide a slice of life. It’s got a bit of The Selby feel, but more artist in her studio, less hipster in his self-conscious environment. The posts started in February; so far there are nine. These are my favorite images:
