1950s S. Salvadori Italian Gilt Tole Leaf Fleur de Lis Candle Holder – Authentic, Signed

So sophisticated, this one piece, mid-century Italian Gilt Tole Leaf Fleur de Lis Candle Holder by Italian designer S. Salvadori has a beautiful low-profile design with two candle holders. Circa 1950s, this gold leaf Italian candle holder has a lovely aged patina that would look magnificent on any traditional table setting throughout the year, but one can imagine the reflective glow emanating from this candelabra while dining al fresco on a lovely summer evening as well. Truly a great find, it would also look amazing displayed front and center on a bookshelf or coffee table.
