Ichendorf Milano | Lantern Birds | Candleholder Cat & Bird

Candlestick Cat & Bird comes from the Birds collection by the Italian brand Ichendorf Milano. It is a design by Japanese designer Tomoko Mizu. This collection consists of various designs such as lanterns, bowls, and carafes, in which birds and other animals are incorporated. Often, it forms a comical scene. In this version, a bird sits on a twig on the inside, while being watched by a black cat on the outside of the lantern.

Design and material

This lantern is made of mouth-blown borosilicate glass, a light, strong, and heat-resistant material. This makes the glass excellent for daily use. It can even be put in the dishwasher. However, for a long lifespan, hand washing is, of course, better. Use it at home during meals for water, soft drinks, or other beverages. But it is, of course, also a beautiful decorative object.
Each bottle is handmade. This means that each piece is slightly different and unique, like a small work of art.

Ichendorf Milano

The Ichendorf Milano collection consists of handmade glass objects. The company has a rich history, dating back to the beginning of the 20^th century in Quadrath-Ichendorf, a small town near Cologne. Master glassmakers created objects with precious ornaments. This continued until the 1950s, when a preference for pure forms and material purity was adopted. This led to the creation of modern designed objects.
Since 1990, Ichendorf has been based in Milan, where, in collaboration with international designers, it has developed a beautiful collection that is produced worldwide. The collection consists of poetic design objects, created with respect for the material and the company's history and knowledge.
