The Design

About Tulip Lysestake

Book Text: Tulip er en keramisk lysestake designet for å holde vanlige duftlys. Formen på Tulip er hentet fra en tulipanblomst. Mellomrommene mellom kronbladene gjør at en tent fyrstikk kan føres igjennom, slik at lyset lett kan tennes. Lysestaken måler 55 ganger 55 ganger 70 millimeter. Mens lyset brenner, reflekteres den lille flammen i den smeltede vaksen, og en mild duft frigjøres. Tulip er skapt for å gjøre det enkelt å tenne lys og for å bidra til en rolig hjemmeatmosfære for avslapning og meditasjon.
