Candle holder GROWDROP - M

Glowbus is a Belgian design brand specializing in handcrafted fire sculptures and candle holders. The brand was founded by artist Andreas Ketels, who combined his fascination with fire, light, and sculptural metal structures into a unique collection. His goal was to translate the communal atmosphere of an open fire into a lasting design object.

The Dewdrop fire pit is the centerpiece of the collection. Its teardrop-shaped silhouette and vertically arranged steel segments make it a striking focal point even without a fire. As soon as the fire is lit, the slats reflect the light, creating a vibrant interplay of flames, shadows, and warmth. This transforms the fire pit into a functional sculpture that brings people together and sets the mood in the outdoor space, even in the evening.

The Dewdrop collection is available in several sizes. According to the manufacturer, the M model is suitable for smaller groups of about one to five people. Dewdrop L is designed for four to twelve people, while the extra-large XL version can serve as a focal point for groups of up to 25 people. Glowbus thus offers solutions for private patios as well as for large gardens, hotels, restaurants, and prestigious outdoor spaces.

The Dewdrop models are made of solid Corten steel. This weather-resistant material develops a distinctive rust patina when used outdoors. Unlike ordinary steel, Corten steel forms a protective oxide layer that shields the underlying material from further corrosion. Glowbus uses particularly thick steel plates and designs its fire pits specifically for long-term outdoor use.

In addition to the large fire sculptures, the collection includes the Growdrop candle holders. They bring the distinctive teardrop shape and play of light from the Dewdrop series to a more compact format. The models are available in various sizes and in Corten steel, stainless steel, and blackened steel. They are suitable for tables, patios, and indoor spaces and can be used individually or combined as a coordinated Growset.

Glowbus products are handcrafted in Belgium. The brand combines traditional metalworking craftsmanship with modern technology and a distinct artistic style. Each model is designed not only to serve a practical purpose but also to become a permanent part of its surroundings as a work of art in its own right.

Glowbus views sustainability first and foremost as long-term product quality. Instead of short-lived fire pits, the company focuses on durable materials, repairability, and a design that is meant to stand the test of time, regardless of short-term trends. In addition, for every Dewdrop fire pit sold, Glowbus funds the planting of 25 trees through organizations dedicated to protecting nature and forests.

Glowbus is ideal for people who view a fire pit not only as a source of heat, but also as a permanent design feature. The combination of Belgian craftsmanship, high-quality materials, and an extraordinary play of light creates a special gathering place for gardens, patios, and sophisticated commercial spaces.
