Gábor Góbi hand carved this candle holder with different repurposed wood and remnants of pristine pink marble. The pine is enhanced using the traditional Japanese Yakisugi method, transforming and enhancing the material, and it’s then elegantly finished with natural oils and sealed with beeswax.
Beneath, a subtle cork lining ensures your surfaces remain pristine.
A distinguished member of the ‘Melting Collection’, this piece is emblematic of a world grappling with the alarming pace of climate change—a narrative largely driven by human endeavors. The daily sights of receding ice caps and thawing tundras bear witness to this. In its design, the melding of wood and stone emerges as a potent symbol, reminding us of the collective imperative to safeguard our environment.
Each component of this candle holder narrates a tale of reclamation. Sourced from scrapyards, rediscovered on city streets, or salvaged from soon-to-be-demolished structures, these materials find a renewed purpose. This metamorphosis of forgotten elements into elegant designs not only represents a joyous creative endeavor but also underscores the potential for envisioning a future where harmony with nature is paramount.
