A truly impressive work of art by the artist Max Esser – "African Elephant", a beautiful candlestick completely and exclusively hand-painted. It belongs to a pair that was first modeled in 1924. With a height of 73 centimeters, this candlestick houses an incredible wealth of detail and has a spectacular effect on the viewer even without candles. Esser's animal sculpture had a significant influence on the development of Meissen art and left behind important testimonies for our time. The best example of this is the pair of candlesticks to which this work of art belongs exclusively. The "African Elephant" candlestick is a masterpiece of porcelain art, as becomes increasingly clear on closer inspection – every detail is skillfully modeled and carefully hand-painted. The repeated flawless realization of great craftsmanship is the hallmark of the Meissen manufactory. A work of art that guarantees an impressive appearance. A candlestick that will enchant your surroundings – exclusive, hand-painted and timeless.
