EDITORS COMMENTS
This Candlestick Sconce, designed by American artist Majel G. Claflin in the 1930s or 1940s, showcases the richness and diversity of American decorative arts during the 20th century. The intricately decorated sconce, now a cherished artifact, is a stunning example of folk art that blends the colors and concepts of the thirties and forties. Majel G. Claflin, an accomplished artist, created this masterpiece using tempera and graphite on paperboard. The sconce's design is a harmonious blend of multi-colored geometric shapes and abstract patterns, reflecting the artistic trends of the time. The sconce's vibrant hues and bold lines add a touch of whimsy and charm to any space, making it a beloved addition to any home or art gallery. Originally intended for use as a candle holder or sconce, this piece has transcended its functional purpose and become a cherished work of art. The Candlestick Sconce is now part of the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it serves as an important reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. Whether displayed in a modern art center or a traditional home, this unique piece continues to captivate and inspire, showcasing the beauty and creativity of American art and design.
