I am Urja

Urja is a recycled sal wood hurricane candle stands (set of 2).

Bold and earthy, this turned saal wood candle holder with a minimal design speaks the language of nature.The craft of wood turning is hundreds of years old. A skilled artisan fixes a rough-hewn circular block of wood at the head of the traditional lathe machine and hammers it in place by hand.

The machine begins whirring as the artisan introduces a hand-held chisel to the block, and applies varying degrees of pressure to sculpt the desired shape and to smoothen the edges. It is a rustic take on classic styles!
