所有的形状元素均是以最简化的方式相互固定和支撑，看上去犹如处在失衡的边缘。基于环形在位置、方向和尺寸上的变化，每件物品也被赋予了不同的功能，例如烛台、花瓶、托盘和镜子等。水晶材质的圆盘被巧妙地放置，以反射出花朵和蜡烛的影像。水晶圆盘分为两种款式：蓝色水晶被用于可反光的镜面框架，白色水晶则用于黑色的哑光框架。

All elements in these objects are supporting one another in the most minimal way appearing as overlapping shapes that are just barely holding their balance. Depending on the position, direction and size of the rings, each item has different functions as a candle holder, vase, tray, and a mirror. The flowers or the flame of the candle can be enjoyed by viewing them through the carefully positioned flat-cut crystal disks, framing the object. There are two types – blue coloured crystals are used for frames with a mirror finish, and white coloured crystals are used for frames with a matte black finish.
