Material
Forged iron
Solid rod, not tube. It has the weight in the hand you expect from iron and none of the hollow ring of pressed steel.
FORGED IRON · FIVE ARMSStaggered heights
Forged by hand · Matte black
Five slender rods forged from a single knot low in the centre, sweeping out into five curved feet and rising again as five stems, each ending at a different height. Sixteen inches at the tallest, so it carries height down a long table without blocking a sightline across it.

Standard taper candles. The cups will also hold a slim pillar, as long as the base is narrow enough to sit down inside.
16 in / 41 cm at the tallest stem, spreading 12 in / 30 cm across the feet. The stems are set at different heights on purpose.
The five feet spread wide and the mass sits low in the centre knot, so it stays put. On a soft cloth, seat it before you light anything.
On a covered terrace, yes. Left out in the rain, forged iron will eventually take on a rust bloom.
Five-Arm Iron Candelabra
Five slender rods forged in iron, springing from a single knot low in the centre. They sweep out and down into five curved feet that rest on the table, then turn and rise as five stems, each ending at a different height so the candles stand in an uneven fan rather than a line.
Sixteen inches at the tallest stem, which carries height down a long table without ever blocking a sightline across it. Made for taper candles, though the cups take slim pillars too. Forged by hand, so the rods are never quite identical.
Free shipping on every order, wherever you are. No minimum, no handling fee at checkout.
Orders are prepared in 1–3 business days. Delivery then takes 3–7 business days from a US warehouse, or 7–20 from an overseas workshop. Tracking arrives by email, and an order with several pieces can turn up in more than one parcel.
Changed your mind? You have thirty days. Return shipping within the US is on us.
We work with solid wood, stone, glass and natural fibre, chosen for how they age rather than how they photograph. Every piece is finished by hand, so grain, tone and outline shift from one to the next.
A QUIET OBJECT
Five stems at five heights read as a fan rather than a row, so you look through it instead of around it. Light three and leave two empty; it still works. That is the part a straight candelabra never gets right.

MATERIAL & MAKING
One knot, five arms, bent while the iron is hot.
Material
Solid rod, not tube. It has the weight in the hand you expect from iron and none of the hollow ring of pressed steel.
Formed
Each arm is drawn out and curved by hand, which is why no two rods run exactly the same line.
Finish
A flat black that absorbs light instead of throwing it back, so the candles stay the brightest thing on the table.
Balance
The knot sits low and the feet run wide, so the piece is steadier than its height suggests.
FROM THE WORKSHOP
“The arms are bent hot, one at a time, by eye. That is why they never match exactly — and why a candelabra made this way looks alive on a table while a cast one just looks symmetrical.

GOOD TO KNOW
A few things worth knowing before it arrives.
12 in / 30 cm long, 12 in / 30 cm wide and 16 in / 41 cm tall at the highest stem. It weighs 3.1 lb / 1.4 kg.
No, the candelabra ships on its own. It takes standard tapers, which are easy to find anywhere.
No — they are staggered deliberately, so the flames sit at five different levels.
No. Let the wax set hard, then lift it off the cup with your thumbnail or a blunt knife.
No. The arms are shaped by hand while hot, so the curve of each rod varies slightly from piece to piece.


Made by hand
Every piece is shaped, sanded and finished in a small workshop. Grain, tone and outline move from one to the next, so the piece that arrives is yours rather than a copy of the photograph.
