Introducing smaller brother to the unique handcrafted candle holder, inspired by the mystical allure of ancient standing stone circles. Each piece is meticulously crafted using Scottish sea glass and jesmonite, creating a unique and captivating design. Experience the beauty of nature and ancient history in one stunning piece. Add a touch of enchantment to your home decor or surprise a loved one with a cute gift. This versatile candle holder is perfect for enhancing the ambiance of any space. Our holder provides a stunning display and a warm, inviting glow. As the jesmonite is fire-resistant, it could also be used as an unusual base for your cone incense. The candle holder's design showcases the vibrant colours and delicate shapes of the sea glass, creating a captivating visual display when illuminated by a flickering candle. Its elegant and rustic appeal will effortlessly enhance any room or outdoor setting, adding a touch of coastal charm to your home decor. Each candleholder was carefully handcrafted, ensuring its durability and charm. The sea glass used in this creation has been naturally weathered and polished by the waves, giving it a smooth and mesmerizing texture. Not only does this candle holder exude natural beauty, but it also promotes sustainability. By repurposing sea glass found on Scottish beaches I am reducing waste and contributing to preserving our precious coastal ecosystems. Note: As each candle holder is made from authentic sea glass, there might still be some sharper edges, so please take care when manipulating the candleholder. The colour, shape, and size may vary slightly, adding to its individuality and charm. As the candleholders are handcrafted, they might show some small imperfections, however, these would not impact the functionality in any way. The finished product is sealed with natural beeswax and can be cleaned with a lightly damp cloth, however, avoid prolonged contact with a larger amount of water. The diameter is circa 5cm, the perfect size for a usual tea candle.

The Lia Fail or Stone of Destiny at The Hill of Tara, Co. Meath, ancient seat of the High Kings of Ireland until the 6th century AD. This standing stone is on the Inauguration Mound, and in legend it was the Coronation Stone for Irish High Kings into the 6th Century AD. The Hill of Tara is located near Dunshaughlin and Navan, and the River Boyne. Also in legend, the stone was supposed to have been brought to Ireland by the Tuatha Dé Danann - a magical race who once ruled Ireland. The Lia Fail itself was supposed to have magical properties - when a rightful king put his feet on it, it would roar for joy, and would rejuvenate a king to give him a long reign. Cúchulainn split it with his sword when it failed to cry out under his protegé, Lugaid Riab nDerg, and from then on it never roared again, except under Conn of the Hundred Battles and Brian Boru.
