Candil was conceived as a tabletop version of Cornucopia. While the technical principle remains the same, reducing the lamp to its three basic elements, in this case the use of materials reflects on the different physical properties necessary to make the electrical apparatus work. Copper and brass are optimum conductors, while wood acts as a perfect insulator.

The carefully crafted shapes of the copper bowls allow the bulb to effortlessly slide in its place, while its warm tones gently alter the quality of the light giving it a candlelight effect.

The three available models take their names from the cities which influenced the realization of the object, Kyoto, where it all began, Madrid, where the project was developed and Milan where they were first presented to the public.
