CANDELABRE

The flame: inherently vibrant and capricious. An untamable element, yet one that can be momentarily captured, brought into intimate moments without constraint. These one–of–a–kind candelabras reflect a desire to engage with the flicker and spontaneity of the flame, not to tame it but to give it the freedom to shine. Crafted by master artisans, each candelabra is both functional and a sculptural work of art. The collection narrates a story of exceptional skill, passion, and singularity, transforming each candelabra into a prized collectible, where utility and artistry are intertwined.

Gaetano Pesce's multifaceted and polyhedral personality motivates his fame as a designer, artist, and architect. Through his work, Pesce has profoundly impacted the landscape of contemporary design, navigating a diverse career that spans architecture, art, furniture design, and sculptural works. "My career is not monolithic, but fragmented," this is how Pesce defined his journey, which began in the late 1950s and continued until 2024. Far from being linear, his path has been marked by bold eclecticism, leading him to engage with various design disciplines while demonstrating a penchant for experimentation and playfulness. Pesce challenged both aesthetic and functional conventions, creating objects with the immediate power to become unforgettable.

Since the early 1960s, Pesce has played a pivotal role within the radical design movement, characterised by an iconoclastic vision, aimed at breaking with the conventions of positivist modernism and exploring new creative possibilities. Through relentless innovation, artistic exploration and profoundly radical intellectual dynamism, Pesce emerged as a beacon of change, reshaping the landscape of contemporary design.
