Guardians of light

Designer Ilkka Suppanen, a keen sailor himself, was inspired by the vast amount of coloured guiding lights that help sailors safely on the very challenging coastal waters of Finland. The candleholder carries the same gentle feel of warmth and security as the lights at sea, and just as the colours of the signals are crucial, so is Kaasa’s rich, yet gentle colour palette carefully planned for creating ambience for the home.

The iconic, elegantly round shape of Kaasa is a small, poetic statue that reflects gentle light around the living room or dinner table. The beauty of the product comes alive when in use. The details are well thought out and the warm flame of the tealight candle plays in a lively way with the thin glass and metal base to create a beautiful, soft light.

‘We focused on the details of the shape to create the perfect mood,’ says Ilkka Suppanen.

Fire, glass and a layer of thin metal

The Kaasa tealight candleholders come in four colour options. Choose and combine as you see fit: sand, grey, desert and cranberry. The outer part is mouth-blown glass while the inner part is made of polished stainless steel. Just waiting for dark nights to light up candles.
