About the Item

A Japanese antique wooden candle stand dating to the late 1800s. The wood species is unknown, yet the material has aged into a deep, nearly blackened tone, conveying a strong sense of time and quiet dignity. Its surface bears the soft wear of long years, giving the piece a calm, restrained presence. Subtle linear detailing is carved along the side of the base, offering a quiet glimpse into the design sensibilities of the period. These understated decorative elements emerge gently from the otherwise minimal form, adding depth without excess. Both functional and sculptural in nature, the candle stand carries a quiet gravity that suits contemplative interiors, display settings, or wabi-sabi inspired spaces. A modest yet evocative object shaped by age, use, and material. Additional antique furniture and decorative objects sourced from across Japan are also available upon request.
