This ceramic candleholder was designed in 1976 by Dutch artist and ceramicist Jan van der Vaart. Known for his systematic approach to form and proportion, Van der Vaart frequently worked with elementary geometric volumes and restrained surface treatments. Candleholder (Square) reflects his interest in clarity, modularity, and the expressive potential of ceramic material, situating the object at the intersection of functional design and sculptural abstraction.
