Asata Candle Holders

Add some sparkle to your home with the Asata stackable candle holders by designers Obvision. The set of five brass bases in satin finish can be playfully arranged on top of one another to resemble the tree that unmistakably epitomises the season. Alternatively, they can be placed lengthways or in a circle formation for the perfect dining table centrepiece - the options are endless!

Verone Vase

The Verone mouth-blown glass vase references the Italian city and Unesco World Heritage Site, Verona, home to the region’s richest collection of Roman remains. A treasure in and of itself, the vase’s marbled colours and patterns are obtained by the fusion of four different colours, and gives the impression that it is cut from stone. Each vessel is made from recycled glassware and has a frosted, matt finish on both its interior and exterior.

Available in dark green or light grey.

Pik Clock

The battery-powered wall clock is available in a clear varnished polished brass face with natural walnut hands (as pictured) or a chrome face and black-lacquered walnut hands.
