Tortoise Candle Stand

The Tortoise Candle Stand brings a soulful, historic warmth to modern tabletop rituals. Handcrafted using the meticulous, centuries-old lost-wax casting technique, this functional artefact features a stylised tortoise adorned with concentric, spiral-coiled wirework and delicate wavy borders. Rising elegantly from its shell is a sturdy pillar topped with a flared candle cup, perfectly sized to hold a standard taper.

Finished in a rich, antiqued brass patina, this sculptural accent serves as an evocative centre statement, beautifully catching the flickering glow of candlelight in minimalist, organic modern, or transitional spaces.

The Styling Ritual: With its compact 4 x 3 x 2-inch proportions, this sculpture carries an unexpected, satisfying physical weight for its scale. It serves as a beautiful grounding element when styled flat on a stack of linen-bound art books, nestled next to a raw concrete incense holder, or placed on a floating bathroom vanity to catch soft daylight.
