Ester & Erik Candles in India
Ester & Erik is a Danish candle brand known for its slender, hand-dipped candles, refined proportions and extensive colour palette. Founded in 1987, the family-owned company produces its candles in Silkeborg, Denmark, combining traditional candle-making with modern production methods.
Spacio offers Ester & Erik's ultra-slim line of taper candles in India, bringing Ester & Erik's distinctive approach to candle proportions, colour and production to Indian interiors. The collection includes taper and slim candles suited to dining tables, consoles, shelves and design-led candle holders.
The Classic Ester & Erik Taper Candle
The classic taper candle was the first candle produced by Ester & Erik and remains its best-selling candle. Its distinctive pointed top gives it a slender profile that has become closely associated with the brand. The candle has a conical foot, allowing it to fit most candle holders.
Ester & Erik produces its classic taper candles in four heights: 24 cm, 32 cm, 42 cm and 50 cm. This range makes it possible to use different heights together or select a single proportion for a more controlled arrangement. The candles are made from 100% pure fragrance-free paraffin wax, with 100% cotton wicks, and are produced at the company's factory in Denmark.
At Spacio, the Ester & Erik taper candles are available in a selection of colours, allowing the candle itself to become part of the interior composition rather than being treated as an afterthought.
Ester & Erik Ultra-Slim Taper Candles
Ester & Erik has also developed its own interpretation of the traditional slim candle. It retains the characteristic shape of the classic taper while using a smaller diameter, creating a finer visual profile.
The slim candle is available in three heights: 24 cm, 32 cm and 42 cm. Its conical foot allows it to fit most candle holders, while its narrower form works particularly well when several candles are arranged together with differences in height and colour.
Spacio was the first to launch Ester & Erik's ultra-slim line of taper candles in India. This introduction brought a more delicate candle proportion to the Indian market and gave interior designers and styling professionals another option for creating refined candle arrangements.
Colour as Part of the Design
Colour is an important part of the Ester & Erik collection. The brand offers a wide palette that ranges from soft neutrals and muted natural tones to deeper colours and metallic finishes. This allows the candle to relate to the colours, materials and textures already present in an interior.
Different shades can also be combined within one arrangement. Using related colours at different heights can create rhythm on a dining table or console, while a stronger colour can be used as a deliberate accent within a quieter setting.
Materials and Candle-Making
Ester & Erik places strong emphasis on the materials used in its candles. Its candles are made from 100% pure paraffin wax from Europe, while the wicks are made from 100% cotton. The company also uses water-based dyes and lacquers.
The production process combines traditional hand-dipping with modern technology. This allows Ester & Erik to retain the character of traditional candle-making while maintaining consistency across its extensive range of colours, sizes and finishes.
Ester & Erik and Interior Styling
A candle can be a small element within an interior, but its height, colour and silhouette can influence the composition around it. Ester & Erik's slender proportions make the candles particularly suited to dining tables, consoles, shelves, foyers and other areas where candle holders form part of the styling.
The different heights allow designers and homeowners to create variation without changing the candle holder. Colour can then be used to connect the arrangement with surrounding furniture, lighting, artwork or decorative objects.
The ultra-slim candles offer another styling option where a lighter visual proportion is preferred. Used individually or grouped with other candle forms, they can create a finer rhythm while retaining the recognisable Ester & Erik silhouette.
Ester & Erik in India
Spacio brought Ester & Erik's ultra-slim line of taper candles to India, introducing a Danish approach to candle proportion, colour and production to the Indian luxury interiors market.
Navin Kanodia, Co-Founder and Creative Director of Spacio, has been closely involved in identifying and bringing European and international design brands to India. His focus on design-led products and interior styling is reflected in Spacio's selection of Ester & Erik, where the candle is considered as part of the overall composition of an interior.
The collection is relevant to homeowners, interior designers, architects and stylists looking for well-proportioned candles for residential and commercial interiors. It also offers a natural complement to sculptural and design-led candle holders.
