Soapstone tealight candleholders, 'Agra Geometry' (pair) (India)

Narendra Kumar designs a fine geometric grid for this pair of tealight candleholders. Keeper of a family tradition that goes back generations, Kumar carves the gray stone with hand tools, masterfully achieving the intricate jali composition on each candleholder. The lit tealight allows for a greater appreciation of the jali composition. Each item in a set is unique thanks to Kumar's respect of soapstone's natural color, grain and veins, and he doesn't use any colors or dyes. Please expect slight variations in color though the overall theme will remain the same.
