Nappula candelabra, Iittala, 2014-2017
A four- or six armed candelabra in either black or white powder coated steel that can be equipped with tea lights as well as ordinary candles. It is a continuation of the successful Nappula candle holder family that was launched in 2012.
When working on the concept I struggled quite hard to find a shape that connected to the original’s strong characteristics with its swollen foot. By turning the shape upside down everything fell in to place and the candelabra is a Nappula in full bloom.
