What is Art Deco style?
Art Deco was the predominant decorative style between the 1920s and 1930s. It is notably defined by bold geometric prints and shapes, along with bright colours.
The style can be seen most prominently in architecture and home decor, but it also made its way into fashion - most notably, in jewellery.
Within the home, Art Deco provided a classy touch to rooms. Whether it was a bright geometric print hanging on the wall, or a pair of striking Art Deco candle holders.
Modern society has recently seen a resurgence in the style, with genuine Art Deco artifacts and modern remakes popping up across several industries.

One of the most popular Art Deco trends in modern society appears to be the silhouette outline design: whether it's wire earrings with a facial profile outline, or a glass vase outlined with bold black wire - or in this case, a tealight complete with a statement silhouette.
The Keeto Glass Tealight from Nkuku (from £18.50) is part of a home decor wire collection. Each piece is created by hand, joined, and sculptured from wire using traditional tools. The techniques incorporate traditional basketry methods but replace wicker with wire to build long-lasting pieces for the home.
