Il Letterato Pure White Porcelain Candleholder – LCDC Collection by Luca Nichetto for Ginori 1735

Celebrate intellect and elegance with Il Letterato (The Scholar), a refined porcelain candleholder from Ginori 1735’s LCDC Collection designed by Luca Nichetto. Crafted in fine pure white porcelain, this sculptural piece represents wisdom and introspection, depicting a thoughtful face crowned with a cylindrical hat designed to hold a scented candle.

A true symbol of knowledge and observation, Il Letterato brings a quiet sophistication to any space—ideal for shelves, desks, or contemplative corners. Pair it with Black Stone scented candles (sold separately), a bold oriental fragrance inspired by the talisman gifted to Catherine de’ Medici by her court astrologer. Rich in spices and mystery, this scent evokes the spirit of discovery and personal enlightenment.

Part of La Compagnia di Caterina, a collection that reimagines the Renaissance court through modern design, each piece in the series merges Ginori 1735’s sculptural porcelain tradition with contemporary artistic storytelling.
