Put a cork in it...and a candle in the cork!
The Portuguese obsession with finding new uses for cork (now that the world has apparently decided that the less traditional but decidedly more airtight metal bottlecaps are a sensible choice) continues unabated with Portuguese designers Corque Design. Alongside the usual chairs and tables made out of cork, I noticed this fantastic candlestick, designed by talented Portuguese product designer Fernando Brizio. Made from natural/black aglomerate cork, this is a playful and fun take on the traditional "candle-rammed-in-wine-bottle" found in so many Italian restaurants worldwide.
