Handlebar Candlesticks by Yen-Wen Tseng
Taiwanese designer Yen-Wen Tseng, a student at Konstfack University College of Arts, Craft and Design in Stockholm, has created a set of rubber candlesticks designed to feel like bicycle handlebars.

Called Handlebar Candlesticks, each piece resembles a series of discs stacked to form the profile of a traditional candlestick.

Here is some more information from Yen-Wen Tseng:

The candlestick is inspired by traditional bicycle handlebars. The soft stripes provide an impressive feeling of touch when gripping it. I followed the simplicity of production and adjust the outline of the stripes to be that of a classic candlestick.

The flexible rubber material provides more tolerance to candles with a little difference. Moreover, the wax dropping on the candlestick is easier to remove.
