”Candlelight is a wonderful way to light up a space and we as humans have a deep emotional relationship to fire with its warm flickering flame. The idea when I designed HEDERVÄRD was to make candleholders that are simple in shape yet rich in materiality and function. They are all easy to carry and can be used in many different rooms and settings. Hopefully these candleholders can create new emotional bonds and will add a warm and welcoming touch to many homes.”

Glass is mainly made of sand, soda and lime melted at a high temperature. Tempering or various additives gives you extra-strong and impact-resistant glass that in some cases can be taken straight from freezer to oven without cracking. A big benefit is how glass can be recycled over and over without the quality deteriorating. Also, a lot less energy is needed to melt recycled glass compared to new raw materials. Our goal is to eventually use only recycled glass in our range.
