A playful and visually striking candle holder made from blackened iron rod, reduced to its simplest lines: a circular head, outstretched arms, and a triangular stance rising from a weighted round base. A halo of curved rods suggests hair or radiating energy, lending the piece a gentle theatricality without tipping into novelty.
The twin candle arms extend like a celebratory gesture, giving the figure an almost ritual presence — somewhere between folk sculpture and postmodern design. Graphic and sculptural in equal measure, it works as well unlit as it does animated by candlelight, where the figure throws lively shadows across surrounding surfaces.
A charming example of functional sculpture: light-hearted, but visually assured.
