Description
Nanda is a candle holder in the shape of a tied bow. Two open loops sit either side of a single round cup, and two ribbon tails ripple out in front, so the whole piece lies low and flat wherever it stands. It is made of 100% aluminium with a plated finish in gold, and the surface carries a gently pitted texture that gives the metal an aged, softly worn look in candlelight. It measures 11.5cm long, 8.5cm wide and 4cm tall, which makes it a small, low holder: the candle you choose gives the height, and the bow stays a neat detail at its foot.
Because it is so compact, it suits the places where a tall candlestick would feel too much: a mantelpiece, a windowsill, a bedside table, a console table or the middle of a dining table. A bow reads at once as a gift, so this makes a thoughtful present for anyone who loves a pretty, romantic detail, and it is just as much at home in a dressing room as in a living room. Line a few along a mantelpiece for a soft row of flames, or keep one on its own beside a mirror, where the reflection doubles the light.
Aluminium is a light metal, and at 0.08KG this holder is easy to move from the hall to the dining table and back again. The plating gives it an even gold colour over that textured surface, so it sits comfortably beside brass, gilt frames and other warm metals. Its broad loops and tails spread out to make a wide base for a holder only 4cm tall. The styling props shown are not included. For the prettiest effect, choose a plain, pale candle and place the bow against something dark or veined, such as marble or deep painted panelling, where the gold stands out clearly.
