Ristomatti Ratia “Takka” Candle Holder – Muurla Glass & Wood – Finnish Design

This striking “Takka” candle holder, designed by Ristomatti Ratia and manufactured by Muurla, is a beautiful example of modern Finnish design that combines glass, wood, and concept into a single sculptural object. The design evokes a fireplace (“takka” in Finnish): solid glass forms a protective frame around neatly stacked wooden elements, creating a warm contrast between transparency and natural material. When a candle is lit, the light reflects softly through the thick glass, enhancing the sense of depth and calm. The candle holder is in very good condition and nearly unused. It works equally well as a functional candle holder or as a standalone decorative object. ⸻ Details • Designer: Ristomatti Ratia • Manufacturer: Muurla • Model: Takka • Material: Pressed glass and wood • Dimensions: 14 × 7 × 7 cm • Weight: 1252 g (without packaging) • Condition: Very good, minimal signs of use ⸻ Why this piece “Takka” is not just a candle holder but a small architectural object – minimalist, tactile, and deeply Nordic in spirit.
