A flame for research

A Flame for Research is a special-edition candleholder created for Mingardo with a philanthropic mission: to raise funds for medical research. Its design is based on a minimalist metal structure where the candle becomes the true protagonist, conveying a message of hope and commitment through light. The piece blends formal purity with the artisanal precision that defines Mingardo’s Italian workshop, resulting in a simple yet poetic object.

Each piece is produced as a limited and numbered edition, reinforcing its symbolic and collectible value. Beyond its function as a candleholder, A Flame for Research represents the union of contemporary design and social responsibility, showing how creativity can become a tool to support meaningful causes.
