About

Not just a candle, but a piece of furniture with a strong material meaning. Flato, designed by Emanuel Gargano, is a handcrafted collection, made in marble and wax, wholly made in Italy. Each candle is different from one another in materials and proportions, there are 3 sizes and four types of marble: the gray shades and the very thin veins of the Bardiglio marble, the crystalline and precious White Carrara marble, the beige shades and the porosity of the Classic Travertine marble and the dark and warm tones of the Walnut Travertine marble. The wax slowly wears off, while the marble, coming from the Trambisera quarry in Pietrasanta, remains as an eternal symbol of purity. All candles have a suitably designed packaging to ensure a safe shipment. The large and medium sizes comes in a single pack, while a 2 pack and a 6 pack are available for the smaller size. Measures: Ø 20 cm.

About The Maker

Emanuel Gargano

Emanuel Gargano's work ranges from architecture to industrial design, from contemporary art to the study of light. His work reveals a deep fascination for the matter of the natural and synthetic elements that he uses and shapes, in search of their inner soul. With his collection of lights, Emanuel Gargano has managed with great skill to bring together the nature and culture of his homeland, Assisi, the main source of inspiration in the realization of this project. Thus, he realized objects of light rather than lamps, the result of his architectural vision and design experience, where the luminous element has always played a functional and decisive role in the modulation of space. The leitmotiv of the entire collection is the attempt not to illuminate with artificial light but to soften the shadow or lighten the dark. It is for this reason that the light emanating from these creations seems to come from the darkness like a glow, as if to underline and enhance the original forms that produce it. The handcrafted and molded materials seem willing to come out on tiptoe and illuminate the blurred memory of the past, manifesting the need to tell its story by lighting itself up. What guided the designer towards the realization of this project was also the need to move towards responsible design, which takes charge of environmental problems and the recovery of materials.
