This Austrian candleholder from the 1970s is constructed from steel and crystal glass, exemplifying the mid-century modern style. The design centers on a sturdy rectangular steel bar with a satin, slightly polished finish, supported by two angled and sharply bent legs that form a distinctive V-shaped profile. Four candle cups crown the piece, each crafted from thick, clear crystal glass with pronounced vertical ribbing and a faceted, sculpted base that creates a lively interplay of light. The steel shows minor surface scratches and a natural, subtle patina typical for vintage pieces; all elements remain original, with no evidence of repairs or modifications. Candle cups are subtly integrated, concealing any joints or fasteners, which underscores the craftsmanship and minimalist intent of the piece. The candleholder accommodates four candles and is notable for its stable geometry and synergy between sturdy metal and sparkling crystal. Condition: good, with the item retaining its authentic components and moderate, age-appropriate signs of use. The geometric silhouette and interplay of materials—cool steel beside luminous crystal—evoke the aspirational spirit of 1970s design. The form channels a modernist voice: “Function and form can exist in harmony, with the discipline of metal and the play of light enriching daily rituals.” Each crystal cup scatters candlelight like a miniature chandelier yet maintains the graphic precision characteristic of the era. The candleholder could be paired with mid-century pieces such as a marble tray, Murano glass, chromed accessories, or minimalist textiles. It would work well as a centerpiece for a dining or coffee table, where neutral hues and clean lines accentuate its balanced presence. Consider surrounding it with low floral arrangements
