Lydytas stiklinis kompaktinis pelenų indas ir žvakidė 23cm

This chunky piece rests thick, flowing curves of molten glass on a natural Gamal wood base, made in Indonesia. The recycled glass was blown while hot and left to melt directly over the wood, so it settles into the grain rather than sitting on top of it. At a generous size, it works equally well as a candle holder, a trinket dish or a decorative ashtray.

Symbolism

The thick, rounded form typical of this kind of Indonesian glasswork is often associated with a deliberately unhurried process: the glass is given time to flow and settle rather than being shaped quickly. Many people see this slow settling as symbolic of patience and letting materials find their own resting shape. Because the wood's contours guide the final form, this piece carries its own distinct curve and profile.

How to use

• Use as a tealight or votive candle holder on a heat-resistant, stable surface, and never leave a lit candle unattended.
• Alternatively use as a trinket dish, coin tray or decorative ashtray.
• Wipe the glass with a soft, damp cloth; keep the wood away from prolonged direct heat or damp.
