Shaped from natural sandstone by skilled hands in India, this small taper holder carries the kind of weight that only stone can offer — cool to the touch, warm in tone, and grounded in its presence. Vertical ridges run the full circumference of the cylindrical base, catching light and casting fine shadows that shift as the flame moves above. Fair Trade Certified, it measures three inches across — compact enough to cluster, considered enough to stand alone.

As with all natural sandstone, each piece varies subtly in surface texture and tone — no two holders will read quite the same in the light.

— Natural sandstone construction with handcarved vertical ridging.

— Cylindrical form with flat base.

— Fits standard taper candles.

— Handcrafted in India.

— Fair Trade Certified.

— Diameter: 3 in / 7.6 cm

— Height: approximately 3 in / 7.6 cm

— Keep away from water and prolonged moisture — sandstone is porous and can absorb liquids.
— Wipe clean with a dry or barely damp cloth.
— Remove wax drips gently once hardened; avoid scraping with metal tools.
— Keep out of direct sunlight for extended periods to preserve the natural tone.

ONE FLAME, ONE STONE

The smallest thing that changes the whole table

Dinner is nearly ready. You slide a taper into the holder, strike a match, and the room shifts — the ridged stone base casts a row of fine shadows across the cloth, and everything feels a little more considered than it did a moment ago.
