The Byredo x Iittala LJUS Collection is a limited-edition line of five mouth-blown glass objects for Byredo candles, incense and reed diffusers. Finnish glass design house Iittala made the pieces with the Swedish fragrance house Byredo, and UK prices run from £155 to £300. The collection went on sale worldwide on 16 October 2026. Each piece is sold separately, not as a boxed set, and no candle, incense or diffuser liquid is included.
Updated 16 October 2026: The LJUS Collection is now on sale and in stock on Iittala UK and Iittala's euro store, with confirmed prices for each piece. Iittala Finland also lists three Byredo home fragrance products. Because it's limited edition, stock can change quickly.
Byredo's other holiday releases this season include the Byredo Les Miniatures Holiday 2026 launch, which has a miniature perfume set and a candle set, and the Byredo Advent Calendar 2026.

What Makes the Byredo x Iittala LJUS Collection Different?
- Handmade glass: Each piece is mouth-blown and hand-crafted at the Iittala Glass Factory in Finland, which was founded in 1881. Small bubbles and variations make every piece unique.
- Dual branding: Every piece is engraved with both the Iittala and Byredo logos.
- Made for Byredo formats: The objects are designed around specific Byredo products, mainly the 240 g candle, incense sticks and the reed diffuser set. They are not general-purpose decorative glass.
Materials and Design
- Glass: Lead-free glass, shaped by hand. According to Iittala Japan, artisans blow molten glass at temperatures above roughly 1,000°C.
- Incense holder: The stick holder is stainless steel. Every other part of the collection is glass.
- Design story: According to Iittala, LJUS is built on Nordic light and the contrast of "fire and ice: clarity and warmth, permanence and ephemerality." The forms reference the light cycle from the midnight sun to winter evenings.
Janni Vepsäläinen, Creative Director at Iittala, says: "When Iittala's glass meets Byredo's fire, a new light emerges: elemental, restrained and deeply human."
