Handmade. One-off piece. Venus Candleholder continues my fascination with the ocean and beach treasures – the quiet act of searching, and the beauty found in things shaped by time.
I’ve always been drawn to erosion and transformation. How something once submerged slowly changes – taken over by corals, seagrass, salt and movement – becoming something entirely new, yet still holding traces of what it once was.
The ceramic elements are vintage, already carrying their own past life. I love working with objects that already exist, continuing their story rather than beginning from zero. The gold becomes a way of giving life again – highlighting, elevating, and gently transforming what was once forgotten.
The shells are nature itself – a direct connection to the underwater world, collected over time and shaped by it.
Everything is made by hand and assembled slowly, layer by layer. A process that takes time, where nothing is rushed, and where transformation happens quietly – almost like a slow tide building a new landscape.
Venus Candleholder becomes a small underwater memory – where old and new meet, and where time is allowed to leave its mark.
