Rotterdam-based designer Lisanne Meester has expanded her Core furniture series into smaller-scale objects with the introduction of the Core Candle Holder, a compact aluminum piece that maintains the architectural sensibilities established throughout her broader collection. This newest addition employs the same material approach of aluminum construction with stainless steel bolt connections that defines the Core aesthetic. Meester’s philosophy of creating statement pieces that transcend pure functionality finds expression in this candle holder through its clean lines and strong silhouette, available in four standard colors plus a natural aluminum finish.

Each piece receives individual hand-finishing attention that distinguishes it from mass-produced lighting accessories. The construction creates durable assembly that allows for repeated candle changes and cleaning without compromise to its structural integrity. The material provides corrosion resistance essential for objects exposed to wax dripping and flame heat. The stainless steel bolts create visible connection points that acknowledge its assembly rather than concealing it.

A pop of color – available in Bright Blue, Lilac, Warm Yellow, or Bright, Orange – peaks out from the under the exterior aluminum piece for an unexpected detail. For those who prefer their decor objects sans color, there is an all-aluminum version available.

For Meester, the candle holder needed to perform essential lighting while providing a sculptural presence that justifies its permanent placement within curated environments. The compact footprint of the holder maintains generous base proportions to provide stability for standard candle sizes while creating visual presence despite its minimal height.

The Core Candle Holder can be purchased through the Lisanne Meester Design webshop or the Adorno design platform. The complete Core collection, featuring the candle holder, is currently exhibited at NIO House Rotterdam until December 2025.
