This vintage candle holder from 1960s Czechoslovakia reflects mid-century modern design through its distinctive geometric, pyramid-inspired silhouette. Crafted from solid, translucent resin in a gradient of amber shades, the form transitions from warm golden yellow at the top to a saturated, orange-brown base. Embedded within the resin are delicate inclusions reminiscent of amber fragments, adding an organic nuance to the perfectly smooth, high-gloss surface. The upper part designed to hold the candle is fashioned from polished brass, complete with a subtle central spike for candle stabilization. Every edge is crisply defined, revealing careful craftsmanship and attention to detail. Condition: excellent, with no visible signs of use, damage, or restoration—retaining its original state from the period.This piece channels the story of the 1960s, an era when utilitarian forms explored geometry and a refined, mineral quality. The amber resin evokes the atmosphere of a past modernity—hinting at fascination with nature’s structures and the play of light within colored volumes. The interplay between brass and resin creates a subtle dialogue, suggesting a desire to balance technology with organic inspiration, as if the object itself narrates experiments in material and transparency.The candle holder could serve as a focal point in a mid-century modern interior, standing out on a warm wooden or minimalist surface, or within a collector’s eclectic living room among glass or ceramic décor. It may be paired with a dark sideboard or marble tabletop, or placed on an occasional table amid books and design objects—especially in spaces where light accentuates the resin’s depth and translucency.
