The candle holder

Looking for inspiration? How about a candle holder?

There’s the classic candlestick with the flat dish and finger loop that people in films and comics use to go down castle stairs and investigate nightly noises. Then there’s the modern variety, which can be any shape. Candle holders come in many shapes and sizes. You can throw one on the potter’s wheel or handbuild one using clay plates. The possibilities are endless!
