Vintage Kräsen candlesticks by Ehlen Johansson
Rare Vintage IKEA candlesticks designed by Ehlén Johansson in 1987.
__
Ehlén's vision for stone candlesticks led her to a local stonemasonry where she sourced surplus dolerite pieces. Crafting three unique candlesticks from this material, they were bundled as a set.
The KRÄSEN candlesticks from 1987 seamlessly blended ancient materials with a modern aesthetic. An internal protocol from the same year challenged the notion that modern style had plateaued, showcasing these new KRÄSEN candlesticks with natural stone bases, iron wire posts, and brass candle cups. These designs bridged the worlds of material, design, and function.
Originally part of the IKEA Tomorrow program, which focused on cutting-edge design trends, KRÄSEN embodies a timeless blend of old and new
