WMF Modernist Ikora candle holder for 3 candles

This beautiful mid-century modern candle holder was designed by Kurt Radtke for WMF Germany. A classic 1960's modern Bauhaus design, minimalist aesthetic with timeless elegance. It is crafted from silver plated sterling silver. 16 1/2" long, 3.5" tall. This is a vintage item from the 1960's and there are some signs of age, but it is in excellent condition with no damage and very well preserved. There is some tarnishing of the silver on the small bowls that hold the candles (pictured) but this can be easily polished off - I polished some but ran out of silver polishing cloths. My mother purchased these in Germany in the 1960's. I inherited them when she passed away. They were rarely used and safely wrapped and stored in her dining room. My mother and I were the only owners of the candlestick. Also included are the 3 candle wax drip rings pictured. Not included - candles and decorative holiday candle rings (used only for display).
