Santa & Cole has launched a re-edition of the timeless Maija Mehiläinen lamps, designed by Ilmari Tapiovaara in 1955. The Finnish designer drew his inspiration for the table, pendant and floor lights from Waldermar Bonsels’ children’s book Maya the Bee (Maija Mehiläinen in Finnish), which is evident in the distinct, beehive-like form. Composed of superimposed metal discs that filter light beautifully, the lamps provide a pleasant ambience. The Maija lights are part of the Spanish brand’s Design Classics collection and available in white and the original nude rose hue.
