Louise Candleholder
Small but significant
candleholders are named for the much-loved Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, just
north of Copenhagen. Originally made in aluminium, the candleholders are now
made in solid stainless steel and silver plated. Use alone or stack for height.
The designs fit standard candles or tealights and will patinate with use. However, they can be polished for renewed shine.

Grethe Meyer |
Born
in 1918 in the Danish town Svendborg, Grethe Meyer was a talented and inspiring
female within Danish design. She was the daughter of a lithographer and a
pianist and having inherited technical and artistic traits from her parents,
she studied architecture at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen – and
graduated as the only woman in the class of 1947. She founded the design studio
Grethe Meyer Design in 1960 and ever since she has created stunning designs for
renowned brands such as Royal Copenhagen and Georg Jensen. Grethe Meyer was
humble of nature and had a deeply rooted love for designing Danish homes.
Grethe Meyer’s designs are all about having an inherent respect for the
consumer, a respect that is reflected in the simplicity, functionality and
timelessness indulging consumers with easily decoded and aesthetic looking
items. |
