Kahler Urbania Lighthouse Functio | Ceramic Tealight Holder | White | 3.5 Inch

Product description

• Pixels Cast In Ceramic: Urbania is a Kähler series of collectible ceramic tealight houses designed by Mette Bache and Barbara Bendix Becker. The Functio takes a different direction from the rest of the range: instead of a recognizable building, it offers a pure geometric cube covered in small rectangular cutouts of varying sizes that create a grid-like, almost pixelated pattern across every face.
• Windows On All Sides: The Functio is white matte-glazed ceramic shaped as a clean, straight-sided cube with flat top and base. Each face carries hand-carved rectangular openings in a range of sizes, giving the surface the density and rhythm of a grid, and ensuring that light can escape from every face at once rather than only the front.
• Smaller Than It Reads: At 3.5 inches tall and 2.8 inches wide, the Functio is more compact than the density of its carved surface suggests, and fits comfortably on a desk, a windowsill, a bedside table, or any spot where a small source of candlelight would be welcome. Wipe clean with a damp cloth; the glaze needs no special care between uses.
• Light Fills The Grid: Set a tealight inside and the grid of cutouts becomes a grid of light, casting dozens of small warm rectangles onto the surface below and the wall beside it. The light effect shifts as the candle moves, giving the Functio a quietly animated quality that makes it as engaging to watch as it is to display.
• Gift That Starts Collections: The Functio is one of the more affordable pieces in the Urbania range and often works as the gift that starts a collection. Its geometric form appeals to anyone who prefers a more minimal or contemporary aesthetic alongside the architectural pieces, and it pairs naturally with any other Urbania house.
