The fleet can be found in four sizes and four colors from a small tugboat with one funnel to a hefty steamship with four big ones, in navy-themed red, blue, black or grey. This model is in red with three funnels. Each funnel is designed to fit either a tea-light candle for acozy harbor light or a taper candle as a pillar of steam.
Aye Aye! vessels can be combined in any size and number and create various themes that will be easy to adjust to different happenings and backgrounds. One narrow piece will look pleasant on a window sill and distract the solitude. Aligned in a row the pieces will resemble a naval fleet, lighting a fire within. Scattered on a dining table the vessels will seem to sail into an archipelago of plates sparking good mood for conversation. Although it doesn't float, the shape and mental connections of theAye Aye! familyfeeldynamic, allowing for any composition, let it be carefully made or left over from last night.
Drawing its inspiration from the Industrial Revolution theAye Aye! familyis made of cast iron and powder coated for its colors. Additional space around the candles acts as an extra safe-zone. A ship is a safe island in an ocean andAye Aye! is a safe place for a fire at home. Being iron cased the vessels are quite heavy, therefore stable and hard to flip (not onwaterwhere they sink like rocks). Each vessel is sturdy as a rock and a bold design item yet simple enough not to become distracting.
TheAye Aye! fleet revokes nostalgia like a candleholder should. The feeling grows stronger combined with the beloved marine theme. As a result, theAye Aye! is a universally appealing design item which, through apersonalized selection of shapes, colors, and combinations can be tailored for individual taste and lifestyle.
