    Twisty Candlesticks

    I just dropped off a few candlesticks at a christmas art show.

    Beautiful Ries! The third picture on right-the candle holder looks to be a separate piece? Are all three "one piece" forgings? Again-Beautiful....

    Not one piece forgings.
    The candle cups are squashed pieces of pipe or square tube- milled designs are cut into them first, then heated and squashed.
    The columns are forged, and mostly twisted.
    The bases are machined.
    Then tig welded together.
