OTHR Valentine?s Exclusive: Trois Candleholder by Brad Ascalon
The Trois Candleholder by Brad Ascalon for OTHR is a simple gesture intended to elevate the candle?s role in its design.

The Trois Candleholder is a simple gesture intended to elevate the candle?s role in its design. Its reductive form creates an instant atmosphere primed for a dinner party or romantic evening.
Its vertical branches extend from the holder?s foundation to simply and elegantly support the candle, with a shape that mimics a slow drip of wax making its way into the base.
The inspiration for this reductive candleholder originated from a fortune cookie?s words of wisdom that hang above the designer?s desk: ?Everything should be made as simple as possible? but not simpler.?

The base of each Trois Candleholder serves a dual purpose: to prevent tipping, and protect the table from runoff wax.
