Amethyst Candle Holder

It looks like a gemstone that escaped from a jeweller's. The Amethyst Candle Holder is made of two faceted pieces stacked one on the other: an amber base cut like a rough gem and, on top, an amethyst-purple cone that holds the candle. When light passes through it, the table fills with warm reflections.

It's designed for long, thin candles and works beautifully even unlit, as a small sculpture on a shelf or bedside table. On its own it gets noticed; grouped with the other coloured candle holders, it becomes a centrepiece guests won't forget. It's made of recycled glass.
