Grey Natural Candle Holder (Set of 2)

Muted rather than vivid orange, this grey salt candle holder set of 2 sits in its own register, the pick for when standard pink salt feels too warm for a contemporary or industrial room.

Grey halite from the Khewra Mine in Punjab carries a different spread of iron minerals to the pink kind, so a lit tealight throws a deep, subdued amber instead of a bright orange. Both holders take a standard 38 mm tealight and sit around 8 to 11 cm across with a height near 6 to 9 cm, the pair weighing close to a kilo, each with its own grey grain.

Set them on a slate mantel, flanking a bathroom mirror, or on a windowsill against pale walls where the low light reads best after dark. The two together make a quietly stylish gift for anyone with a pared back, Scandinavian leaning home. After the candle burns out, leave the wax to set solid and lift it away cold, then keep the salt away from running water, which slowly wears the crystal. Fancy that softer, muted light after dark? Add a set to your basket.

Returns

Every lamp is hand-carved from natural rock salt, so variation in colour, shape, weight and surface texture is normal and is not a fault.
