ABOUT PRODUCTID 12290
This modular candle holder from the IKEA PS collection, designed by Ehlen Johansson in Sweden during the 1990s, consists of twelve cylindrical segments crafted from matte white ceramic. Each module features a smooth, unglazed surface and a cool, neutral white that is consistent throughout the set. The design is defined by pure geometric forms—cylindrical modules with recessed centers for tealight candles, joined by integrated ceramic links that allow for flexible configurations: from straight lines to gentle curves. Each piece bears an embossed designer’s signature on the underside, confirming its authenticity and origin. The project reflects the Scandinavian approach to functionality, flexibility, and simplicity typical of late 20th-century design. Condition: the item shows no signs of use or damage and remains in very good condition.The shape of the candle holder tells the story of the 1990s, when Swedish design explored new forms of modularity and a willingness to experiment. Its minimalist white and compositional freedom recall a time when objects in the home invited personal interpretation rather than imposing themselves. Each segment seems to anticipate a gesture, inviting arrangement, rearrangement, and playful interaction with light and shadow—in the spirit of relaxed yet thoughtful Scandinavian clarity.The candle holder may be displayed on a low console or a central table, where its modularity enables unique compositions tailored to the character of the interior. It would work well in minimalist settings as well as in eclectic spaces, where pairing with natural wood, glass, or metal highlights its sculptural subtlety. It can be combined with other 1990s-inspired pieces, such as geometric vases or simple lighting, or used as a contrast to more decorative elements.
