Price History
Description
Taika candle by Iittala is a decorative candle in paraffin and vitrified porcelain that combines an atmospheric glow with an imaginative form. Designer Klaus Haapaniemi creates a fairy-tale-inspired expression in the Taika collection that brings personality to the table setting and everyday life. The porcelain container serves as a beautiful detail even when the candle is not lit and can be used again and again. Perfect as a candle on the table or in the window where you want to create an inviting atmosphere and enjoy a mood-enhancing candlelight experience.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Iittala candle for its gorgeous steel blue hue and the charming Taika pattern, which adds a subtle Scandinavian touch to any setting. It's versatile enough to work well in both minimalist and more eclectic interiors, especially when paired with natural textures or wooden accents. Practical styling tips include placing it on a simple tray or in a cluster with other candles in complementary colours for cosy evenings, or using it as a focal point on a dining table or coffee table. Its size makes it ideal for layered candle arrangements or as a standalone piece that brings a gentle calming vibe to a space.
