Ribbon Taper Candle Pair

A fish in glass, scales and all, holding one taper. Clear, blue or beige, 3 in across and 5 high. Spot clean only.

Sculpted in raw clay, not drawn in software, then cast and hand-glazed in Mexico. Holds one standard taper; candle not included. Blue or cream.

Cut from natural travertine — the warm, slightly pitted stone, so the pattern is different in every one. Tall is 4 in, short is 2, both 2 in across. Holds a standard taper.

Soy wax poured into a sardine tin — peel the lid back and the fish are wax, over a hand-illustrated scene. Five scents, from citrus to oakmoss and leather. About 25 hours. The tin gets genuinely hot; keep it on a coaster.

Two swans mirrored — a white one above on dark, a black one below on light, wings spread toward each other. A 1915 illustration in a medium brown wood frame. Two squares, 6 x 6 and 9 x 9 in across the frame. Glass-free.

Hand-forged iron with a curved hook that cradles a hanging candle — it stands on its own, no mounting. Amish-made in Pennsylvania. Small 5.5 x 11.5 in, large 7.5 x 18 in.
