The Abbracciaio Candleholder from Kartell tells a story of connection through its coupled form. This aluminum piece, designed by Philippe Starck with Ambroise Maggiar, consists of two separate parts that join together in what appears as an embrace—hence its name, which suggests a hug or embrace in Italian. The candleholder gains its stability from this very connection, with each component supporting the other when placed together. This piece’s minimalist yet expressive design offers a fresh interpretation of the traditional candelabra while providing a stable platform for candles.
