Meridian Brass Candelabra

Candlelight, reimagined as architecture.

Style Advice from Rachel Blindauer

The Meridian Candelabra takes the traditional five-arm candle holder and rebuilds it as a puzzle of interlocking right angles in vintage brass. From the front it reads as pure geometry; light five tapers and it becomes something else entirely — a sculpture that happens to hold candles.

I love this as a dining table centerpiece where you want drama without florals, or anchoring a console or mantel where its angular silhouette can be appreciated from across the room. Because it sits low and wide rather than tall and narrow, it doesn't block sightlines across a dinner table the way a traditional candelabra can.

At $429, it's an easy way to bring a genuinely sculptural object into a room — the kind of piece guests ask about before they even notice it's a candle holder.
