About the Item

Rising from a flat hexagonal base, this floor-standing candle holder takes a cylindrical column form that narrows into a pointed, bullet-shaped top. A narrow vertical slot cut into the upper face accepts and frames a candle, giving the piece a sculptural quality that reads as much as object as functional holder. The matte black enamel finish and heavy metal construction give it the raw, solid weight associated with Brutalist design. The proportions are deliberately exaggerated, the height and mass amplified well beyond conventional candlestick scale. Able to easily hold a 4.5-5" wide pillar candle. Brutalist decorative objects from the 1960s and 1970s frequently borrowed formal language from industrial and architectural contexts, favoring raw materials, geometric mass, and minimal surface ornament. This piece reflects that approach: no decorative flourish, no tapering elegance, just resolved form in heavy enameled metal. The hexagonal base echoes the column above it, keeping the geometry consistent throughout. The piece is in original condition. Wear includes deep scratches and enamel loss consistent with age and use.
