A striking hand-forged wrought iron double candleholder, this piece embodies the raw poetry of blacksmith craft. Its heavy ribbon of iron is curled into bold geometric scrolls, merging function and sculpture with elemental force. The Brutalist influence is unmistakable — unpolished, textured, carrying the weight of fire and hammer. Perfect on a mantle, table, or altar, it feels at once archaic and modern, a relic of craft traditions translated into mid-century form.
