Bengt Orup for Hyllinge Glasbruk – this star-shaped candlestick is a striking example of Swedish glass art from the mid-century era. With its textured surface, it reflects light elegantly, creating a warm, sparkling atmosphere.

The striking shape combines decorative playfulness with functional clarity – typical of Bengt Orup's distinctive style. Whether arranged as a pair or individually, these candle holders add a luminous touch to tables, sideboards, or windowsills.

An authentic vintage highlight from the Hyllinge glassworks, sure to delight collectors and lovers of Scandinavian design alike.

My tip: Place the candle holder in an ensemble with other glass objects – this creates a harmonious, luminous arrangement.
