Inspired by the twisting, fluid forms of sea kale, this Handmade Candle Holder is an artisan raku piece designed to transform candlelight into art. Its marine-inspired glaze blends rich oceanic colours with natural crackle effects, highlighting the beauty of the raku firing technique.
The cut-out design makes this tealight holder both decorative and functional, allowing candlelight to project flickering patterns onto nearby walls and surfaces. Each piece is hand-shaped, then smoke- and raku-fired to bring out deep variations in texture and tone. No two pieces will ever be identical, giving you a truly unique work of pottery.
Designed for both contemporary and traditional settings, it is versatile enough to enhance a modern living room, a rustic dining table, or a garden setting.
Handmade in Lincolnshire by Village Ceramics & Crafts, this tealight holder reflects the maker’s dedication to both timeless pottery skills and modern artistry. It’s an ideal gift for lovers of authentic, handmade home décor, and a treasured addition to any pottery collection.

Sea Kale Tealight
Organic openings echo seaside flora, while raku firing adds smoky veining and subtle crackle. Shades of blue‑green and aqua shift beautifully as the flame flickers, creating an intimate, ocean‑inspired glow.
Display on shelves, mantles or dining tables away from flammable materials. Burn on a heat‑safe base; extinguish fully after use. Dust gently with a soft cloth when cool.
