    Two years ago I posted the first of these ATLAS candleholders by Harri Koskinen. In the meatime, i've managed to get two more from the same series: a red one from the 2010s edition and a blue one from the original edition.

    It's funny how I always say I don't like collecting the same design in different colours... in general it's always like that, but not with Harri Koskinen's designs... and I couldn't explain why if I'm asked about it.

    As far as i know, the original series from this design came in light green, blue, red, clear and green, whereas the last edition came in clear, red (99% sure it comes in a different finishing), black and white. And those are all I want to get ;)

      I only have one!

      and I bet you love it!!! :) it was a red one, but was it a new or an old one?

      How do I see the difference?
    6. austrohungaro austrohungaro, 10 years ago
      Probably the sticker... mine's a new one and the text is written in black. My Muotka vase is from more or less the same time of the original edition of Atlas and the text is white. Is the IIttala text on your label white?

      On the other hand I am pretty sure if we can see a new and old red Atlas together we'll find a different shade of red.
