Originally designed as pot warmers, these pieces would hold a tealight below and keep dishes warm at the centre of the table—a staple of elegant 1970s European dining. However, their modernist form lends them beautifully to alternative uses:
– Upright: supports a large pillar or votive candle
– Inverted: becomes a flat base or raised dish with visible feet as a design feature
Crafted from substantial, weighty glass, they make striking indoor or outdoor pieces—perfect for a table setting, sideboard, or minimalist décor scheme.
Condition
Very good vintage condition. Some minor surface scratches from use on the flat side—nothing that detracts from their display or function.
