This candlestick from the 1970s exemplifies Czechoslovak modernist design, combining strong geometry with functional intent. Crafted primarily from copper in a warm, reddish-bronze tone, the structure consists of a tall vertical stem rising from a broad, stable base, while three short cylindrical copper arms are topped with cleanly profiled candle trays. Two slender, diagonally arranged brushed brass rods introduce a subtle gold-toned contrast and lend visual rhythm to the piece. All soldered joints are crisp and uniform, with a balanced interplay between materials and proportions. The composition reflects mid-century modern principles, echoing the minimalist and rational aesthetic characteristic of Czechoslovak craft from that era. The piece is preserved in excellent condition, showing only a gentle patina and tiny marks from age-appropriate use, with no visible repairs or damage – a purely authentic, delicately textured vintage surface.The candlestick carries the spirit of the seventies: an era of meticulous workmanship and appreciation for noble materials. The copper's warmth converses with the muted sheen of brass, arranging itself into a graphic composition, reminiscent of rays radiating concentrically from a source of flame. Within this interplay of metal and light lies the voice of its time – contemplative yet ever ready for the casual rituals of daily living.This piece would settle well in an open-plan living room punctuated by mid-century modern furnishings, especially in the company of teak or walnut. It may be placed atop a low sideboard, marble surface or a geometric table, where the warm copper contrasts vibrantly with glass or stone. Pairing with other metallic accents – such as brass vases or trays – is recommended to build a cohesive arrangement that quietly nods to the atmosphere of a 1970s modernist interior.
