Heavy brass, warm patina and around a hundred years of history: this old candlestick from Austria dates from the 1920s. It is made for a romantic dinner for two – and for every moment you allow yourself a break from the rush of everyday life.

Heidenreichstein, the flea market that returns every year. Two candlesticks stood side by side, one with a small dent, as if it had once broken the other’s fall. A hundred years of candlelight, a hundred years of evenings. What has it lit that no one can tell anymore?
