The shape feels soft and organic, almost like frozen movement in glass. Together with the original spherical candles and packaging, the set carries a very distinct atmosphere of Finnish interior design from the late 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original box remains included, with its deep purple graphics and period typography intact. A rare detail today, especially with all four holders and candles still together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDesigner\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNanny Still\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the central figures of postwar Finnish glass design, known for playful forms, sculptural silhouettes, and strong decorative character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRiihimäen Lasi\u003cbr\u003eFinland\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKehrä\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePeriod\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1975 to 1980\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePressed glass\u003cbr\u003eOriginal candles\u003cbr\u003eOriginal retail box\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight 5.5 cm\u003cbr\u003eDiameter 10 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements for one candle holder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good vintage condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe candle holders appear unused.

Reflections move through the pressed glass surface and create a soft halo around the candle flame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven unlit, they function almost like small glass objects rather than ordinary candle holders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAtmosphere\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA very typical late twentieth century Finnish combination of practicality and decorative design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set feels equally at home in a minimalist interior, a seventies inspired space, or alongside Scandinavian glass collections from Iittala, Riihimäki, and Nuutajärvi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original packaging adds another layer entirely.
