A glaringly obvious example of this appears here as the bold crowns that add just the right amount of flare and whimsy to these pieces, the perimeter of which is decorated with mounted glass cabochons in vivid green and red, encasing a metal star in each. Most likely produced in Europe during the aforementioned design era that moved us away from the austere and strictly functional rules of modernism, bringing forth ideas of exaggerated decorative elements and blended historical styles as we see here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the candles are placed, they appear almost as though they have been dropped into a pool of metal, producing what is commonly known as the 'crown splash' in physics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecifications: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight: 26cm \/ Diameter: 9.5cm \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SAD Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56884708966778,"sku":"SAD0213","price":80.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/7883\/1907\/files\/rare-interesting-postmodern-silver-nickel-plated-worn-patina-crown-shaped-candlesticks-illuminated-with-cut-glass-cabochons-in-brass-unique-design-with-flare-hand-made-france-for-sale_c95a7bb4-cf72-4388-a309-45b4f3ed2e9b.jpg?v=1778930422","url":"https:\/\/sadgallery.co.uk\/products\/pair-of-pewter-crown-candlesticks-with-cabochons-france-1940s","provider":"SAD Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
