The Kubus candle holder - Designed by Mogens Lassen

It all started with the Kubus candle holder. A candle holder that took a very long time to be finalised. The Kubus remained on his desk for a long time while Mogens Lassen carefully developed and calculated a candle holder that was to be crafted with mathematical precision. In 1962, the first finalised Kubus 8 was made by hand by local craftsman in Ordrup. This finely crafted pieces of art was not put into mass production, and was reserved for friends and family of the renowned architect, until By Lassen decided to share the beautiful designs and ideas of the brothers Mogens and Flemming Lassen to the world.
