Martti Rytkönen

Valentino is a convergence of hard and soft elements . This thick , crystal-clear glass is shaped like a heart – the universal symbol of care , warmth and love . By also giving the heart a bulging shape , Martti Rytkönen has made the glass almost appear to be pulsating . The votive holder has a round hole , allowing the candle to sink down at just the right level making the light visible through the glass , but still reaching up over the edge . The manufacturing technique of the bowl gives the inner edges a gently rounded look . Fill it with classic love letters written on paper , or with a little water and a few roses floating on the surface . The collection launched in 2010 .
