Keep in mind, of course, that this [modern candle lantern](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fable-lantern) was designed specifically with the younger generation in mind. Inspired by [ancient candles and oil lanterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fire-capsule-oil-lamp), the Enever Design 'CANDELA' is a updated version that offers a cool way to once again enjoy the soft and [eco-friendly glow of candlelight](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-solids-1). The mess-free candle includes a screw-off top in order to replace the candle. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 60% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Modern Candle Lighting:** The modern take on traditional candlelight offers an opportunity for eco-friendly lighting solutions and the blending of traditional design with modern aesthetics. - **Youthful Nostalgia:** A younger generation that is turning to nostalgic items such as candles and lanterns presents opportunities for brands to market modern updates of traditional items. - **Eco-friendly Alternatives:** The move away from traditional lighting options to eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives presents opportunities for innovation in the design and production of lighting products. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Home Decor:** The introduction of modern candle lanterns presents an opportunity to create unique home decor pieces that cater to the younger audience. - **Event Planning:** Event planners can take advantage of the younger generation's interest in traditional items, such as candles, and incorporate modern updates into their events to create a nostalgic and unique atmosphere. - **Sustainability:** With emphasis on eco-friendliness, creating sustainable lighting options has become a priority in the design and manufacturing industries of lighting products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Digitized Gas Lamp Lanterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auge-camping-lantern.md) - [Flickering Candle-Inspired Lanterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nebo-big-poppy.md) - [Flame-Free Candle Warmers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-candle-warmer-lamp.md) - [Luxurious Sculptural Candle Holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-candle-holders.md) - [Outdoor Lantern Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camping-lantern-1.md) - [Modernized Lantern Illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ambientec-madco.md) - [Stylish Outdoor Illumination Lanterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-outdoor-lantern.md) - [Naturally Inspired Digital Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magma-lamp.md) - [Smart Candle Warmer Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candle-warmer-lamp.md)
