Vintage Brutalist Heavy Wood Candle Holder

This is a vintage, hand-carved wooden pedestal bowl or candleholder, often described as being in the Brutalist or Mid-Century Modern style.
The style is characterized by its chunky, abstract, and textured appearance, which often features hand-carved details and a dark stain.
It is sometimes referred to as "Gothic" or "Witco style," a reference to the Witco company, which produced similar tiki-inspired carved wood furniture and decor in the mid-20th century.
These pieces are considered folk art and were popular in the 1960s and 1970s.
The object can be used as a decorative bowl or a candleholder.
