How can I be sure these Gio Ponti candlesticks are authentic?

The authenticity of these Gio Ponti candlesticks from the 1930s has been thoroughly verified by The Oblist's expert team.

What is Alpacca silver and how should I care for it?

Alpacca silver, also known as nickel silver, is an alloy containing copper, nickel, and zinc, which resembles silver but is highly durable. To maintain the polished appearance of your candle holder, gently clean it with a soft cloth and avoid abrasive materials that may scratch the surface. For unpolished pieces with original patina, minimal cleaning is recommended to preserve its vintage charm. Regular dusting and careful handling will keep these vintage silver candle holders in excellent condition for years.

What are the dimensions and features of these Gio Ponti candle holders?

This set of Gio Ponti candle holders features a sleek design typical of the 1930s, embodying the elegance and functionality of the era. Each piece measures 19cm in height and 6cm in diameter, making them suitable for various settings. Made from Alpacca silver, they offer a sophisticated appearance whether polished or left with their original patina. These vintage silver candle holders are not only functional but also serve as exquisite decorative pieces, reflecting Gio Ponti's iconic design ethos.

Why are Gio Ponti designs considered valuable investments?

Gio Ponti is celebrated for his innovative approach to design, blending functionality with artistic elegance. His work, particularly from the 1930s, is highly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and timeless appeal. Investing in Gio Ponti pieces, like these candle holders, offers not only aesthetic pleasure but also potential financial appreciation. The demand for authentic vintage designs ensures that such items retain their value over time, making them a wise investment for design aficionados.

Are there any specific considerations for displaying vintage candle holders?

When displaying vintage candle holders like these Gio Ponti designs, it's essential to consider both aesthetic placement and preservation. Position them in a location that accentuates their design, such as a mantelpiece or a curated shelf. Avoid direct sunlight or humid areas to prevent tarnishing or deterioration. Using them with care, such as choosing candles that do not drip excessively, will help maintain their condition. These considerations ensure that your vintage silver candle holders remain a stunning focal point in any room.
