The Världens Barn votive candle holder is a unique piece of Swedish design by Lars Hellsten for Orrefors. The name "Världens Barn" is Swedish for "Children of the World," a charitable initiative that raises money for children in need.
Lars Hellsten, a renowned sculptor and designer for Orrefors, is known for his signature style of creating dynamic glass forms that play with light. His work often features textured surfaces and organic, natural shapes. While a specific design history for this exact piece is not widely documented, it is part of a larger, recurring collaboration with the "Världens Barn" charity.
The candle holder itself is a beautiful example of minimalist, modern Scandinavian design, with a substantial weight and a form that refracts candlelight to create a beautiful glow.
