Gerd Bøgelund Royal Copenhagen Stoneware Candlestick Holder.
 
An exceptional mid-century Danish studio stoneware candlestick designed by renowned ceramicist Gerd Bøgelund for Royal Copenhagen. This broad-brimmed piece features a wide, flared dish collar adorned with Bøgelund’s signature deep-incised geometric lattice work, highlighted in warm ochre and reddish-brown glaze tones that contrast beautifully against a dark, earthy ground.
Bøgelund was one of Royal Copenhagen’s premier stoneware artists from the mid-20th century, celebrated for her precise geometric surface carved details and rich, tactile glazes. This piece serves brilliantly as a focal candlestick, a striking desk accent, or a centerpiece item for collectors of mid-century Scandinavian ceramics.
