Asha Terracotta Candle Holder

Somewhere between ancient pottery and modern sculpture, someone found room for a candle.

The Asha Candle Holder from Meso Goods takes a simple taper holder and turns it into a small exercise in geometry. Handcrafted from terracotta by artisans in Sabana Grande, Honduras, its tall, sculptural silhouette features a tapered base and an oversized circular opening that gives the whole thing a slightly architectural personality. The warm, earthy finish and subtle variations of handmade clay soften all those deliberate angles, creating an object that feels both ancient and surprisingly contemporary. Standing ten inches tall, Asha makes an impression on a dining table, mantel, or shelf, even when the candle is nowhere to be found. Which is pretty impressive for something whose primary responsibility is standing still.
