THANIYA1988

Company: T-Thaniya

All the products of this company are created and hand-painted by skilled Thai artisans. Each piece is produced according to a refined process that requires perfect synergy of heart, mind and hands. The ‘Decorative Art Scented’ collection features handmade candles placed in hand-painted ceramic containers, each an elegant work of art that reflects the meticulous craftsmanship of Thai artisans.

All candles are made of the finest raw materials, like natural Thai jasmine rice, essential oils and natural fragrances. Once candles have melted, wax can be used as a massage balm for the skin. The products are 100% non-toxic and environmentally friendly.

This year, designer Matteo Ragni has created “Togetherness” for the company, a two-in-one flower vase and candle holder that can also be used separately. The design derives from an archetypal truncated cone shape, suitable for holding cut flowers or serving as a pitcher. The latter element is reminiscent of a donut and joins the former thanks to its central hole and the conical shape of the vase. The scented candle holder comes with a mirrored lid that can contain potpourri or small jewelry like rings, necklaces, or earrings. We must really say that unity is strength!
