On a base in the form of a simple round slab there are two circular elements placed vertically, over them a horizontally mounted rod with three candle holders. The main design element of the form is a bent rectangular bar. The choice and repetition of a circular element and the use of shining chromed surface on this candlestick are typical of the design of the 1930s. The candlestick was done according to a design by Cvjetko Pećar, teacher at the Crafts School, and made by the well-known Zagreb craftsman Ferdo Rosić, who studied metalworking at the same school.
