The name Kaasa refers to a beacon that was crucial to sailors in the Bay of Bothnia in Finland. Reminiscent of bonfires, these stone or wooden structures guided mariners in the right direction, or to good fishing grounds. In perilous times, a fire was lit on the kaasa to warn of the enemy’s approach. This forebear of the lighthouse has inspired Suppanen, a sailing enthusiast born in coastal Finland.

Kaasa was designed by Ilkka Suppanen in 2011. It is made from brushed stainless steel and heat resistant glass. Only methylated (denatured) spirits may be used as fuel. 500 ml of methylated spirit will give a burning time of approximately 6 hours.
