For Bengt, it all began with a cow motif, which he turned into a cast-iron candle holder – inspired by his childhood on his grandparents' farm in Skåne. Soon, other animal motifs such as sheep, horses and moose followed, all crafted in Bengt's home region of Småland, while Lotta found her own creative path with her characteristic angel motifs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe humorous, often tongue-in-cheek designs of Bengt \u0026amp; Lotta combine the Swedish folk art tradition with a modern design language. The products are crafted with great care in Sweden, often in small workshops that preserve traditional craftsmanship – using high-quality materials such as metal, wood and enamel. Some of the design objects are even exhibited in Swedish museums today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt \u003cstrong\u003eNordlichttraum.de\u003c\/strong\u003e, our focus is clearly on Bengt \u0026amp; Lotta's versatile \u003cstrong\u003ecandle holders\u003c\/strong\u003e – complemented by a carefully curated selection of \u003cstrong\u003ecutting boards, trays, wall hooks and paper napkin holders\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCandle Holders – the Heart of the Collection\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBengt \u0026amp; Lotta's candle holders\u003c\/strong\u003e are the Swedish designers' signature: from playful animal motifs such as moose, horses or squirrels to Lotta's delicate angels and abstract shapes.

Important when choosing a candle: this model does not fit standard tapered candles, but only the significantly narrower tree candles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to its compact size, the angel easily finds a place on a shelf, a windowsill or a small side table.

In the early 1990s, Bengt's graphically simplified depiction met with great enthusiasm for moose and Sweden – not least among German tourists visiting Scandinavia.
