The Bugia Candleholder is constructed of delicate steel with a brushed brass finish. The candleholder is structured as an ode to the perfect shape of rings. The name Bugia directly translates to “candleholder” in Italian; however, it also means “white lie.” The elegant design uses minimal means for a striking effect, recalling the iconic candlesticks used before the invention of electricity. Designed by Formafantasma, whose practice is rooted in cultural and historical nuance, the Bugia Candleholder alludes to a timeless practice.
