The Minerals Collection was chosen as a title because a different mineral was used to give color to the candles covered. Each of the candelabras is made of beech. The Mineral Collection by Liam Hopkins of Lazerian offers five shapes in three sizes. It will be launched in London at 100% design next month. **Implications** - While many consumers rarely use candles anymore, those who still enjoy a candlelit night or romantic dinner will certainly find these candelabras super charming! The [colors are fun](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-candle-collection) and the design is unique. They have plenty to offer in terms of style and design as well practicality! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.4/10 - Popularity: 3% | Activity: 1% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Laboratory-inspired Candle Holders:** These candle holders shaped like laboratory beakers offer a unique and charming design for candle enthusiasts. - **Mineral-based Candle Colors:** Using different minerals to give color to the candles adds a fun and vibrant element to candlelit settings. - **Beech-made Candelabras:** The use of beech wood in creating these candelabras combines natural aesthetics with functional design. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor:** The unique and charming design of laboratory-inspired candle holders can be a disruptive innovation opportunity in the home decor industry. - **Candle Manufacturing:** The use of different minerals to give color to candles opens up innovative possibilities for candle manufacturers. - **Woodworking:** The utilization of beech wood in creating candelabras presents an opportunity for woodworking artisans to showcase their craftsmanship. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Modular Candleholder Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-candleholder.md) - [Adorable Bee-Inspired Candlesticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beeinspired-candlesticks.md) - [Ritual Sculptural Candle Holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alma-mater.md) - [Architectural Candle Holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/core-candle-holder.md) - [Mineral-Exploring Modern Decor Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmic-relics.md) - [Artfully Liquid-Like Light Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cairn-lamp.md) - [Naturally Inspired Digital Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magma-lamp.md) - [Fire Connection-Inspired Candleholders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charles-kalpakian-1.md) - [Stone Cube Candle Holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qub-candlestick.md)
