Candle holder, sculpture, collector's item – how the STOFF Nagel candle holder inspires living spaces and design lovers worldwide
When it comes to iconic home accessories, there's no getting around it: the STOFF Nagel candle holder . This stackable, modular candle holder from the late 1960s has long been more than just an accessory—it's a design classic, a statement of individuality, and a highlight for any style-conscious interior.
What is the FABRIC nail candle holder?
The original design was created by Hans Nagel, who realized his idea together with architect Werner Stoff. The result: a candle holder that can be expanded, combined, and stacked as desired. Individual modules create a unique light sculpture—architectural, timeless, and surprisingly versatile.
