Tealight Candle Holder - Perentie
$34.95
In stock and ready to ship
This design was inspired by the artist's life in a remote aboriginal community. This depicts the desert people of Central Australia hunting Perentie for food.
These gorgeous candle holders are hand-made from glass and a layer of clay then beautifully gift boxed with a story card inside. The clay allows the candle flame to illuminate through and radiate the magnificent colours of the Dreamtime designs.
Each candle holder is handmade with clay, therefore the end product may look slightly different to images due to variations.
A portion of each sale goes to the artist.
11cm diameter.
