Description
This is a small stoneware candle holder shaped like a two-handled vase, with a round body, a narrow neck and two curved handles that arch outward from the rim to the shoulders. A striped cat is painted curling around the body, its face peering out from one side, and the stripes carry on along both handles and the rim. It is 8cm long, 8cm wide and 10cm tall, made from 100% stoneware, and it takes a single taper candle upright in its neck. It is multicoloured all over, so it reads as a small painted object even before the candle is lit.
Because it stands only 10cm tall, the candle supplies most of the height, so a single holder sits comfortably on a mantelpiece, a bookshelf, a sideboard or a deep windowsill without taking up much room. Grouped with other painted ceramics and a vase of fresh stems, it brings a playful note to a console table or a hallway shelf. It suits anyone who likes a home with a little wit in it, and it makes a thoughtful gift for a cat lover or for someone setting up a first flat who wants something with more character than a plain holder.
It is made entirely of stoneware, a clay fired at high temperature to give a dense, hard body that feels solid in the hand, and this holder weighs 0.4KG. The two handles give an easy grip, so the holder can be picked up and moved from shelf to table without reaching for the candle. The styling props shown are not included. For an easy arrangement, choose a slim taper in a soft, muted shade so the painted cat stays the focus, or line up a few candle holders of different heights along a mantelpiece for a relaxed, collected look.
