Wrought iron candle holders, forged by hand in my Cotswolds forge.
One in the range at the moment, at £25. It is forged from 6mm round steel bar, with the base hand scrolled into a spiral and the handle drawn out to a taper that loops back on itself to make a finger hole and a thumb brace. The spiral gives it enough weight at the bottom to sit steady rather than wander across a table.
Once the forging is done it gets a hot wax of pure beeswax, which protects the steel and gives it a deep, dark finish.
More designs are on the way. If you want a particular size, or a matching set for a dinner table, email me — that is an easy thing to forge to order.
Standard lead time is 4 working days, then 48 hour shipping.
