FLORAL CANDLE HOLDER
While inspired by the classic ideal of femininity - the flower - these candle holders are at the same time moody, androgynous and imperfect. Hand-built and glazed in the black shade they compliment a sophisticated table setting.

At the start of her formal training in the visual field, Lisa Dengler acquired a BA in Architecture near Toronto and in doing so worked with architecture firms in Switzerland, The Netherlands and Germany. She continued to explore and manifest her visual language through a career in fashion, graphic design and photography.
In an act of opposition to the fast-paced and constantly fleeting, consumption-based landscape she had found herself working in, she began stone carving in her Brooklyn studio with just a hammer and chisel.
She continues to explore various artistic media and processes in different locations around the world, from New York to Mexico to Spain, to now Maastricht, The Netherlands, focusing on natural materials and classical techniques from a contemporary perspective.
"I am drawn to raw materials, perhaps because of my background in architecture, or perhaps because of my love of nature. I want every piece to feel tangible, in both literal and metaphysical senses."
Lorem ipsum, or lipsum as it is sometimes known, is dummy text used in laying out print, graphic or web designs. The passage is attributed to an unknown typesetter in the 15th century who is thought to have scrambled parts of Cicero’s De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum for use in a type specimen book.

Glazed ceramics may be able to withstand being put through the dishwasher, though to maintain their original state and ensure longevity handwashing is highly recommended.
To remove melted wax from your candle holder, we recommend the technique of gently placing a napkin over the area and using a hairdryer on a low heat setting to soften the wax. Avoid using high heat in order to protect the holder’s material. Once softened, the napkin will absorb the wax. Repeat as needed.
