Here in Copenhagen, the days are getting darker so the candles are getting lit earlier. Check out my picks of cool candle candy for your "hygge" candle collection. Dutch designer Frederik Roijé presents this streamline, ultra modern take on the candle holder that looks like a bent pipe poking through a wall. I'm usually a fan of anything made from used piping so maybe thats why these little powder coated steal tubes appeal to me for a more clean cut representation. You can't go past the old brass candle holders, I was going to put in one of the more traditional style late 1800's brass candle holders but am also a huge fan of this slightly more contemporary beauty by Gio Ponti.
The stunning felt creations by Amsterdam designer Siba Sahabi were presented by MINT at London Design Festival earlier this year. They are so different and have an old worldly, rustic feeling about them. Having been in Istanbul earlier this year I can see where the inspiration is beautifully expressed through the many layers of felt. And last - little LUP, of course in my material crush "copper" but looks great in black as well. Very simple lines with a practical little loop for carrying it through the house to find a midnight snack.
