    Here are some rare Art Deco candle holders. Copper was a medium of the period, although chrome items are more common. These candle holders also display the modern geometric style of the Art Deco movement.

    The large circular candle holder was manufactured by the Chase Copper and Brass Company, circa 1930's. It was designed by Ruth and William Gerth for the company, and it's called the "Disc" candle holder. It's rarely seen and more often found in chrome than copper.

    The pair of half-circle candle holders are attributed to German designer Albert Reimann based off of this auction description:

    http://www.wright20.com/auctions/2009/06/mass-modern/544

    I found these exact same candle holders in a Seattle antique mall before this auction occurred. I paid a tiny fraction of the cost for what they sold at auction, so I can consider this a good find! They have cork bottoms.

    Reimann also designed some Machine Age candle holders for the Chase company as well, and they are highly desirable and rare to find. However, I don't believe these are manufactured by Chase.
