Frieling - Brutalist Candlestick

A brand new relic from an imposing past. Published by Frieling – those Germans who transform simplicity into an aesthetic manifesto – this cast iron candlestick is an ode to the refined brutality of the 70s. And there it is, arriving in your living room, brand new from the period, with its original label proudly attached, like an intact souvenir from another time.

Cast iron. A material that exudes power and authenticity. Here, it is worked with a rough, almost volcanic texture, which captures the light and reflects shadows like sculptures on a concrete wall. The three arms, like sentinels, rise with a perfectly orchestrated asymmetry, recalling the raw and organic forms that marked brutalist design.

And yet, it is not just a question of aesthetics. This candlestick was designed to last, to cross the ages, to tell the story of a know-how. Frieling is this: a vision where the object becomes heritage, a functional work of art that fits into your daily life without ever losing its aura.

Placed on a raw wood console, on a coffee table or even in the center of a dining room table, this candlestick does more than just light. It imposes a presence, a dialogue. Lit, it diffuses a hypnotic light, like a ritual from another time. Unlit, it remains a totem, an object of conversation, a wink to those who know how to recognize the exceptional.

At Le Taudis, we don't say it often, but this kind of piece is everything we love: a perfect combination of character, history, and rarity. So here it is, for you, the enthusiast who knows that the essential is in the detail.
