Tin Candelabra
c. 1936
E. Boyd's 1936 design sketch brings a humble tin candelabra to life with rustic charm. The tiered, cylindrical structure is punctuated by rows of punched holes and topped with a cone and ring, while slender, branching arms reach out to hold small candles. Rendered in muted grays and browns, the illustration feels like a page from an artisan's notebook, capturing the simple elegance of handcrafted metalwork during the Great Depression era. It’s a delightful glimpse into the design process of everyday objects from the past.
