Votive in crystal glass from Kosta Boda, designed by the glass artist Ann Wolff.
Snowball was created in 1973 through an experiment in which the glass was blown directly into a snowdrift. The result is a rounded form with an uneven, rough surface that looks as if it were made of packed snow. When the candle is lit, the glow spreads through the folds and hollows of the glass, much like a snow lantern. The votive has since become a classic and has sold more than 15 million units worldwide.
