L'histoire
This pair of Christian Dior candle holders from the 1970s is attributed to Gabriella Crespi. The bases are made of half ostrich eggs made out of resin, while the brass shafts are each adorned with a fluted bone ring. Each candle holder is also set on a brass base with rounded edges, reminiscent of the voluminous curves of the rings. Reflecting the opulent aesthetic of the 1970s, this creation evokes the spirit of Crespi, who adeptly blends organic forms and materials with the eclectic trends of her time.
Gabriella Crespi began collaborating with Maison Dior in the 1960s for home and table accessories, and from the 1970s, for furniture.
À propos de Christian Dior
Christian Dior (1905-1957) ran a Paris art gallery in the 1930s, showing painters such as Dalí and Giacometti, before founding his couture house in 1946. His first collection of February 1947, soon called the New Look, redefined postwar fashion. The house later extended its name to accessories and objects for the home. Collectors of vintage Dior look for pieces with clear marks and period labels, in the refined, neoclassical taste that Dior himself cultivated.
