Brutalist Wrought Iron Floor Candleholder with Ring Detail, France, 1960s

About the Item

A tall and sculptural floor candleholder in hand-forged iron, France, circa 1960. Characteristic of the Brutalist aesthetic, this piece features a slender, tapered central shaft adorned with a bold annular ornament at mid-height. The base rests on three curved legs forming a stable and expressive tripod. The raw texture and subtle irregularities of the iron surface reveal the artisan’s hand, imbuing the piece with a powerful sense of materiality. Both primitive and architectural in spirit, it embodies the Brutalist movement’s appreciation for form, weight, and artisanal rigor. A striking presence in any interior, whether as a functional candleholder or as a sculptural object.
