The proof that some design will always stay timeless. These candle holders have been made by Ehlen Johansson for IKEA in the 80’s. Almost 40 years later and they will still fit in any modern interior.

Made of dolerite, or black granite, a beautiful rock type that’s common in southern Sweden. It was designed by Ehlén Johansson, who had started at IKEA in 1984. When Ehlén wanted to make candlesticks out of stone, she simply visited a local stonemasonry and got some surplus dolerite pieces. She developed three different candlesticks using the material.

This is sold as a set of three.
