Unusual and harmonic at the same time is what the Vela newspaper holder from the designer Constantin Wortman is.

In its form, the newspaper holder fulfils the already famous candle holder Vela, that did also appear by Umbra.

The Vela objects help themselves with the same sensitive and organic form speaking that shows a sort of grid patterns which is drawn through round asymmetrical omissions.

This makes Vela similar to a corral on the first sight, or other natural forms. Accordingly vivid and organic is how the newspaper holder appears. It seems as if it would develop and grow.

The external, polished aluminium appearance fulfils and contrasts simultaneously the organic forms from Vela and makes it an impressing accent everywhere.

However, Velas exceptional design does not hide its practical aspect because the newspaper holder is problem-free capable to hold numerous magazines, books, journals or other objects.
