A Minimal Candle Holder Inspired by the Nose

Take a quick look at this minimalist candle holder. At first glance, you notice a simple and refined piece to hold your candle. Look at it again and you’ll notice the abstract profile of a nose, which happens to be the inspiration Quentin de Coster had behind the sculptural design. NOSE is made from two laser cut pieces of steel that are welded together and are complete with a “nose” that holds the candle in place.
