I got this skull candle holder in Stockholm- it comes in clear or white- just in time for Halloween! I first saw it in the window of a seemingly "fancy crystal" store, and figured it must cost a bajillion dollars (or kroner, as it were) until I spotted it in the amazing Asplund store, which is a pretty awesome home store- I wanted to take EVERYTHING home, including their kitchen display (white cabinets and marble counters/back splash YUM). The skull ended up being reasonably priced and I was in heaven.

The older gentleman who sold it to me at Asplund was so adorable- he was wearing bright red trousers, a white button-up shirt, and a bright red watch- very colour coordinated and uber mod... dare I say.. very Swedish.

Nice. Do you remember how much it was? I may pick one up for myself.

It was around $35-40. I saw you can buy it online from bloomingdales.
