Molekyl Candle Holder

Candle Holder Made of Magnetic Balls

The Molekyl candle holder consists of a metal tube for the taper candle, a magnetic ball, and numerous steel balls; it is a unique decorative object that plays with materials, shapes, and individuality. The final design of Molekyl is unfinished and is determined personally by the user. Each candle holder comes with 20 large and 20 small steel balls. Thanks to the endless possibilities for arranging the balls individually, no two Molekyl candle holders are alike. Since all elements are held together by a magnet strong enough to penetrate non-magnetic materials, the result is unique objects that seem to defy the traditional laws of physics. The candleholder can be used as a centerpiece on the table or on a windowsill. By combining several candleholders, you can create a traditional Advent wreath. For a more extravagant look, the candle tube can be placed on top of the spheres, as if it were floating above a collection of molecules. It also looks interesting when some of the steel spheres are pinned under a thin tabletop, thereby tricking the perception of gravity. Designed by Michael Rem, the Molekyl candleholder is available in various colors and sets. The candleholder was honored with the German Design Award.
