Pair of Spanish Brass Candleholders by David Marshall, 1970s
A pair of hand-cast candleholders by David Marshall, dating to the 1970s. The aluminum stems rise from softly rounded bases and are accented with asymmetrical brass inlays that wrap each form.
The surfaces bear the hand of the maker—fluid, imperfect, and alive with texture. Distinct in height and silhouette, the pair creates a dialogue of balance and contrast.
Scottish metal artist David Marshall (b. 1942) traded a traditional life for one on the road—riding a motorbike from Canada through Central America to Colombia, where he learned to weld in the mountains above Bogotá, and gathering inspiration across Europe as he traveled the world throughout the 1960s and ’70s.
For the last five decades, he has cast bronze and aluminum sculptures from his remote farm studio in the Andalucian countryside of southern Spain. His coffee tables, wall panels, and objets draw on the granite outcrops of the Scottish Highlands, the stone geometry of Roman ruins, and the lattice patterns of Moorish Spain.
Marshall has built an international following, from commissions with Christian Dior to public exhibitions across Europe. Each work marries functionality with the curiosity of a seasoned traveler.
