Brutalist Steel Candle Holder Modular Industrial Design (c. 1970s)

A sculptural steel candle holder defined by strict geometry and unapologetic materiality. Composed of four cylindrical holders aligned on a flat steel bar, the piece is anchored by a circular counterweight element, giving it both visual tension and functional balance.

Its design language is unmistakably brutalist: raw steel, visible construction, and a form dictated entirely by function. There is no ornament here — only structure, rhythm, and weight.

Likely produced in Europe during the 1970s, this piece sits somewhere between utilitarian object and functional sculpture. Perfect as a centerpiece on a dining table, sideboard, or console, especially in minimalist, brutalist, or architectural interiors.
