Whimsical hen-shaped candle holder is an authentic Walter Bosse design, produced in Austria by Herta Baller circa 1950s–1960s. Unlike the more commonly seen bronze “Black Golden” series, this lighter aluminum edition offers a rare variation, prized by collectors for its unique materiality and softer metallic tone. Aluminum versions were made in far smaller quantities than the bronze pieces, making them especially sought after today. The stylized silhouette captures Bosse’s signature blend of playful charm and clean modernist form, rendered here with crisp casting and a subtle, time-worn patina. Excellent vintage condition with light surface wear consistent with age.
Price for each. Engraved Carol 663.
Height: 2.5 inches, Width: 3.5 inches, Depth: 1.5 inches
