Uusikuu candle sconce, brass
The Uusikuu (“New Moon”) candle sconce, designed by Kaija herself in 1974, is a sought-after and beloved, self-explanatory classic. Just look at its round, clean shapes and bold form – just like the Moon. It’s a home for warmth, a soft, brazen bow to the night sky, and a piece of Finnish design history. Tonight, the new moon isn’t dark. It’s radiant.
The Uusikuu candle sconce is made of brass and was designed by Kaija Aarikka in 1974. It holds one straight candle and features a round, concave reflective surface behind it. Slide the candle sconce in place. There are two support props behind the sconce, rest the sconce on the upper one.
All Aarikka products are handmade and thus unique. In our brass products, this handmade, unique quality is seen in the finishing process, where the coating on the brass product can be uneven and lively. This gives every item an unique final touch, and this is why our brass products are not identical to one another.

Did you notice the wood grains?
Every wooden Aarikka item is unique, because every piece of wood is unique. Products are handmade, visible in them and the volume they are made in - small volumes for a need. So the small details of life are visible. Light stripes visible in the wooden pearls are made by Kaija's husband Erkki Ruokonen's unique technique, which is still used to hand-dye all wooden products in Raisio.
