Pair of Low Metal and Wood Taper Holders, Scandinavian, 1960's

A pair of low taper holders pairing a spun metal cup, finished in an iridescent dark patina, with a base built from stacked laminated wood rings. The layered base construction is a hallmark of Scandinavian studio design, prized for turning a functional object into a small study in material contrast. Compact and grounded, they suit a coffee table or console just as well as a dinner table.
