Georges Pompidou Candle Holder · Paris Souvenir

Discover the Georges Pompidou candle holder, a pop-up paper artwork that pays tribute to one of the most iconic and contemporary landmarks in the French capital. Handcrafted with care in our family workshop just steps from Place de la Bastille in Paris, this candle holder is made from FSC®-certified paper with a metallic finish. It reflects our commitment to durable, local and high-quality Paris souvenirs. Both artisanal and authentic, this Georges Pompidou candle holder takes you straight to the heart of the building's avant-garde architecture.

The distinctive façade of the Centre Georges Pompidou comes to life on the front panel, revealing the pattern of its famous exterior escalator. The left side highlights the large white towers used to cool the building, while the right side stages the blue pipes that carry its air conditioning. The back of the candle holder echoes the overall lattice of the structure, a mesh that captures the bold architectural style of its era.

Assembly is child's play. By following our step-by-step tutorial, you can put it together in under five minutes, with no glue and no scissors required. It is perfectly suited to children aged 12 and up. Once assembled, simply slide a 45 mm LED tea light through the notched slot beneath the candle holder. The paper-lace details on each face then come alive: the soft glow lights up the motifs, creating a warm and artistic atmosphere.

Measuring 9 x 7 x 12.5 cm (length x width x height), this candle holder is easy to carry and fits anywhere in your home. It ships flat inside a tracing-paper envelope, with a printed QR code on the back that links to our assembly tutorial to guide you every step of the way.

The Georges Pompidou candle holder is part of our Lumières de Paris collection, winner of the Fabriqué à Paris 2022 label. This collection celebrates Parisian icons and offers a unique visual and emotional experience, inviting you to rediscover the architectural treasures of the City of Light.
