Timeless character and challenging attitude. Award-winning designer Birger Dahl originally designed Birdy in 1952 in response to modernist architecture. The new limited edition comes in matt-finish Marsala developed by Pantone. The quite inquisitive table version is available also as a wall and floor lamp.

Granny lights up the interior the old-fashioned way. Instead of flipping the power switch, strike a match and watch as cosy candlelight spreads over the room. A contemporary take on the classic candlestick, Granny is designed with modern-day innovations that heighten its appeal.

The base’s edges rise upwards to catch and contain melted wax before it drips onto the surrounding surface. The holder is made with a sliding brass knob that makes it easier to remove leftover wax and place a new candle inside.

Crafted in steel and brass and made in two heights, Granny is available in matt black or matt white. The design combines a simple and humble object with contemporary design, “a striking design that hopefully will be enjoyed for generations to come” say at Northern Lighting.
