Round Amber Alabaster Candleholder

The dark amber veins of this smooth round candleholder become even more pronounced when lit. The entire object emits a soft, diffused, creamy light that’s unique to the stone. Artisans in Egypt use alabaster hewn from mountains in the Luxor area to hand craft these candleholders. Sculpting chunks of multi-hued alabaster into perfectly smooth candle holders is a painstaking, multi-step process. The cutting is done gradually over several days to ensure the fine crystals in the stone don’t break, and pieces are glued and wrapped in cotton at night to “rest”. Variations in the stone make each candleholder truly one of a kind. Available in Small and Medium. Use with our Bloomist Beeswax Votives or our Tea Light Candles by Greentree Home.
