I have started to get together a lovely collection of Kivi tealight holders by Iittala. I currently have 6 in all different colours - red, brown, green, blue (x2) grey. The red ones cost more because iittala uses gold dust in their production to achieve the rich colour. I also just purchased two aqua ones on Ebay.
My Kivi's look very pretty on the dining room table at night. They turn a meal into an occasion. I love them. I just wanted to let you all know that.

I can't win with you lot.
And now my wife is convinced I'm gay because she caught me dancing around the room to a Doris Day showtunes album.

Think about it
maybe you are, or could be Bi a lot of fine folks are gay on this forum. No one here cares if you are gay or straight like me.
Just have to be interested in modern design, Gays love mid century modern, and so do straights
a nice common mix for both groups.

I know things have been bad...
I know things have been bad for you recently Stephen but I genuinely hope you're not collecting these things in preparation for a Lupe Velez moment...

i disagree
My Kivis were designed by Heikki Orvola, who was (is?) no slouch when it comes to glass making. I think they look rather lovely on my Piet Hein dining table. They ARE pretty dammit. Any other Kivi fans out there in design addict land?
