Candle Stand
c. 1937
Edward L. Loper’s 1937 design sketch brings a rustic, functional charm to life with this tall wooden candle stand. Rising from a sturdy, blocky base, the central post supports a clever adjustable arm that holds a single candle, looking ready to light up a dark room. A tiny technical diagram in the top left corner reveals the practical thinking behind the piece, showing exactly how the sliding mechanism works. It’s a beautiful blend of craftsmanship and modernist design, proving that even simple, everyday objects can be elevated into works of art.
