Set of Ten Swedish ‘Liljan’ Brass Candleholders by Ystad
$2,800.00Five pairs of “Liljan” brass candleholders by Ivar Ålenius Björk. Though identical in size, each pair differs slightly in patina and branding (likely based on production period variance).

Marks include, ‘IAB Ystad Metall,’ ‘Sweden-Lily,’ ‘Made in Sweden,’ ‘Made in Sweden for Scan Corporation.’
All have an attractive patina, though one pair’s luster is more significant due to polishing within the last few years.
