Description
This white candle holder is made of polyresin and built like a small sculpture: an open arch forms the base, two rounded swellings stack above it, and a flared cup at the top holds a single candle. It stands 21cm tall, 11cm long and 5cm wide, slim enough for a narrow shelf and tall enough to lift a taper high above the table beneath it. The surface is sandy grained all over, a fine texture that gives the white resin a soft, stone-like look.
Being narrow from front to back, it earns its place where space is tight: a mantelpiece, a floating shelf, a deep windowsill or the end of a sideboard. On a dining table or a hall console it gives one candle real height without crowding the surface around it. The open arch keeps the base light to the eye, so it sits happily among books, vases and small ceramics, and it looks as considered unlit as it does with a flame at the top. It suits anyone who likes their candle holders to read as objects in their own right, and it makes a thoughtful housewarming gift for someone who already owns plenty of the ordinary kind.
Polyresin is a resin that takes curved, sculptural forms well, which suits a design built from swells and hollows. At 0.35KG the holder is light enough to lift and move from room to room. The sandy grained finish runs from the feet of the arch to the rim of the cup, in white with no contrasting band or detail. For styling, we like it with a slim taper in soft grey or taupe, grouped with a vase and a couple of books so the curves have company. The styling props shown are not included.
