The warm glow of the iconic Lantern tea light holder created by Harri Koskinen for IIttala is now available as a table lamp. Like a lantern, this blown-glass sculpture creates the illusion of a flame floating above the ground. The lamp will cast an atmospheric light in private homes as well as in public spaces such as restaurants. The young Finnish designer describes the tea light holder as a 'light in flight' yet stationary inside the glass. A very beautiful decorative object to offer as a gift or treat yourself to.
