The Craft Hotel Ubud

Object No. WOO-011
Geometric Chiseled Pillar Candle Holder
Physical Description:

A contemporary sculptural piece defined by its striking hourglass silhouette and sharp, geometric facets that taper into a narrow central waist. The form is hand-carved from solid timber using precise chiseling techniques to create triangular planes, each adorned with a rhythmic series of horizontal grooves that provide a deep, tactile relief. Finished in a dense charcoal black wash, the surface absorbs light to highlight the structural integrity of the wood while a recessed circular basin at the flat summit provides a secure setting for a single candle. This piece seamlessly merges modern minimalist geometry with the traditional Balinese heritage of Ukir craftsmanship, resulting in a bold, architectural accent that celebrates high-contrast texture and form.
