This piece stands out for its brutalist aesthetic and sculptural structure with organic reliefs, which capture and diffuse light in a spectacular way.
Crafted from thick, transparent crystal, the candleholder features an architectural silhouette composed of faceted volumes and deeply relief patterns, characteristic of Wokan’s work. Its abstract design, reminiscent of rock or ice, creates a fascinating interplay of transparency and reflections from every angle.
Serving as both a candleholder and a true glass sculpture, this creation will fit perfectly into a contemporary, vintage, or modernist interior. An iconic piece of 1970s European design, it is highly sought after by collectors of glassware.
