Pinci Candle Holder
from 137 $
Pinci, which means “pliers” in Italian, is a die-cast candle holder in Zamac, a metal alloy of zinc and aluminium. The candle holder’s sophisticated hinge allows the holder to open and close under its own weight, clamping candles of various sizes and shapes.
Pinci’s final design was developed through a series of 3D prints. The prints became more and more technical over time as Chris wanted the grip function to be adjustable for many different types of candle. Pinci’s hinge function looks simple but is produced with a sophisticated casting, and the result blocks the holder from opening or closing too much.

”I like candles, especially since I moved to Sweden as it is a very big part of the culture here. I thought it would be good to improve the function of a holder and to address the problem of ’wobbles’ when using candles of different sizes”
About the collection
The Little Things is a collection of smaller furniture pieces and accessories designed by the company’s design director Chris Martin. In The Little Things, Chris Martin gave special attention to smaller objects that we encounter in our everyday lives and perhaps take for granted. The collection was designed with the aim of creating objects with the ability to gild everyday life.
“I wanted to change the scale of the things I normally design. It turned out that it is a similar process as when I design furniture, it is the same struggle, even for smaller objects. But the reward is worth it, because as the saying goes, it’s the little things that make a big difference,” says Chris Martin.
