Brass Brutalist Candestick

This candlestick is a striking example of brutalist design, likely dating from the mid-20th century when the movement was at its peak. Crafted from brass, it features a raw and textured finish that is characteristic of the brutalist aesthetic. The structure is bold and architectural, with a central stem that branches out into three arms, each terminating in a flat, angular holder for a candle. The base is solid and disk-like, with an organic, hammered texture that contrasts with the smoothness of the arms. The candlestick’s form is sculptural and robust, with an emphasis on materiality and a departure from traditional decorative detail. This piece would make a statement in any contemporary or eclectic interior, embodying the principles of brutalism with its emphasis on stark, geometric forms and a palpable sense of weight and presence.
