Tou, designed by Claesson Koivisto Rune and Orrefors, shows how an established function can take on a new form. Inspired by the classic hurricane lamp, the designers have divided Tou into two components: a foundation in thicker glass and a tall, thin-glass cylinder placed inside. The different layers and thicknesses reflect the room and the candlelight in a way that makes the eye linger. Set the table with Tou both outdoors and indoors. The candles are easy to light when you take off the top. And with the tall glass in place, the flame burns quietly, even in an evening breeze.

Tou is available in three sizes: a smaller one for regular tealights (1.5 inches), a medium size for large tealights (2.3 inches), and a large storm lantern for pillar candles or stick candles (a functional metal holder is included).
