Vintage Studio Pottery Terracotta Chamberstick

£18.00

The Story

This terracotta studio pottery candleholder is a beautiful blend of rustic charm and minimalist design. Featuring a simple, hand-thrown form with an abstract, painterly finish, it captures the relaxed and tactile nature of 1970s studio ceramics. Its earthy, muted palette makes it an inviting piece that fits seamlessly into both traditional cottage and modern interiors.

The Details

  • Dimensions: 10cm (4") Diameter x 5.5cm (2.25") H.

  • Candle Fit: Accommodates a candle up to 3cm in diameter.

  • Material: Terracotta with a tactile, semi-matte glaze.

  • Era: Circa 1970s.

  • Condition: Excellent vintage condition with light signs of wear consistent with its age.

Why It’s Special

The "chamberstick" style—traditionally a portable candlestick with a pan to catch wax - is given a mid-century update here through its raw terracotta finish and painterly glazes. It is a one-of-a-kind piece that celebrates the marks of the maker, offering a soulful alternative to mass-produced homeware.

Styling Tips

  • The Hygge Nook: Place it on a wooden side table or a stack of textured books. Pair it with a chunky, beeswax candle to emphasize the warm terracotta tones and create a cozy, flickering atmosphere.

  • Modern Farmhouse Mantle: Group it with other stoneware or terracotta vessels of varying heights. The abstract glaze on this piece acts as a subtle focal point within a neutral-toned collection.

  • Functional Simplicity: Use it on a bedside table as a functional nightlight. Its wide base provides stability, and the earthy colors are calming and grounding for a sleep space.

Shipping & Sustainability

  • 100% plastic-free, recyclable, and biodegradable packaging.

  • U.K. Delivery: Sent via FREE Royal Mail Tracked 48 service.
