Inspiration for the iittala Nappula Brass Short Candle Holder came to designer Matti Klenell at the Nuutarjärvi glass museum, where he was drawn to the distinctive design of an interestingly shaped chair. Moved by the unique piece of furniture, Klenell set out to create memorable pieces of his own. This is the shorter of the two candle holders in the Nappula collection, allowing it to hold even a tall candle and still serve as a centerpiece that won't obstruct your view. The sturdy brass has an attractive shiny finish, and a felt bottom rest further stabilizes the piece. Fire is an element that has long brought us comfort, warmth and ambiance, and the iittala Nappula Brass Short Candle Holder makes it that much more beautiful.
Holds most standard candles with a 3/4" diameter base.
First founded as a glassworks company in 1881, iittala is now a leading company in modern Finnish design producing a range of dinnerware, glassware and art pieces. You’d be hard-pressed to find a Finn or fan of Finnish design that doesn’t recognize the iittala logo, designed by Timo Sarpane... More iittala
I have Iittala Nappula candle holders in white and red, short and tall and love their simple yet refined design. The brass Nappula's are by far my favorite, though. The brass is very high quality giving them weight, and the shine is in keeping with the candle's purpose. I very much recommend these exquisite candle holders!
