Description
A modern taper candle holder with a stepped, ribbed base and a clean cylindrical stem. The layered rings catch the light beautifully, while the wide footprint keeps the piece stable. Designed for easy 3D printing (base-down, no supports) and simple post-finishing. Perfect as a single accent or grouped in sets on a dining table or shelf.

Detailed (listing / portfolio)
This 3D-printable taper candle holder combines a minimal silhouette with subtle detailing. A broad circular base is sculpted into concentric steps that create a soft ribbing effect; above it, a smooth cylindrical stem forms a snug candle well. The geometry balances visual lightness with a low center of gravity, so it sits securely on the table. Printed base-down, the model requires no supports and finishes cleanly in PLA, PETG, or resin. Leave it matte for a contemporary look, or sand and prime for metallic paint. Style it as a single statement piece or group several at staggered heights for a refined centerpiece.
