This piece is issued in a rare, limited, and numbered edition (612/999) and features an official engraving and mark at the base to guarantee its authenticity.This sculptural object brilliantly explores the concepts of balance, gravity, and movement. Thanks to Vos's ingenious counterweight system, it allows for subtle positional adjustment, transforming a functional candlestick into a true kinetic architectural work. As the candle burns down and loses weight, the mechanism dynamically responds to alter the tilt, making the candle "climb" and creating a captivating visual experience.The piece is completely original, unrestored, and has deliberately been left uncleaned to preserve its unique natural copper patina, historical charm, and traces of original wax residues.
