The perfect expression of rustic-meets-contemporary, our handcrafted Alvear candlesticks are made from authentic, ethically sourced ram horns, set in polished silver.
A horn lamp, spotted a decade ago in the window of a boutique on Buenos Aires’ upscale Avenida Alvear, was the spark that ignited the Alvear collection, which combines the best of Argentine craftsmanship: bold, rustic elements tempered by exquisite metalwork and a sleek contemporary edge. Key to the Alvear aesthetic is the use of authentic ram’s horns, ethically sourced from Argentine farms where the livestock roam freely. With their helix-like silhouette and individual variations in size, color and texture, they make every piece a one-of-a-kind collector’s item. Part of the Alvear Collection. Candles are not included. Individually wrapped for protection in bubble wrap inside a cloth bag. Includes cleaning cloth. Set of 2.
