Kastehelmi means ‘dewdrop’ in Finnish, the name refers to the circles of bubbles in the pressed glass of the votive. Here two elements, water and fire, are combined: Beautiful reflections are created around the votive when there is a lit candle inside. The Kastehelmi glass product range is quintessentially Nordic and has been popular since its introduction in 1964.

The designer of Kastehelmi, Professor Oiva Toikka, is one of the greatest names in Finnish glass. His imaginative, rich and bold glass art deviates from the streamlined aesthetic of Nordic design. He has worked in the performing arts for as long as he has in glass. The Birds collection is Toikka’s best-known work. He has enjoyed an international career and received numerous awards, among them Lunning Prize, Pro Finlandia Medal, World Glass Now 85 Award, Kaj Franck Design Prize and the Prince Eugen Medal.
