Product description
In the deepest December, Lucia, the bringer of light, triumphs over the darkness. In Finland, thousands of girls dressed as Lucy take part in a candlelight procession through the streets, proclaiming the victory of hope and love over despair and remembering that even a little light can dispel the darkness. The Lucia candle holder also has a smaller companion, the Lucius candle holder, and belongs to a family of seven ceramic objects created by COMPANY for Artek's FIN/JPN Friendship collection. What gifts did the Finnish delegation to Japan bring to Japan in 1919 to inaugurate Finnish-Japanese diplomatic relations? With this in mind, Finnish-Korean design duo COMPANY created their contribution to the FIN/JPN friendship collection. The family of six ceramic objects is both decorative and functional; everyone performs a seasonal ritual belonging to the Finnish calendar. Expressive and disarmingly naive, the family of objects evokes Finland's animistic, pagan past. They are handcrafted by ceramic partner Artek in Portugal, based on a process of close collaboration with COMPANY's founders, Aamu Song and Johan Olin.
