Terrazzo — marble chips, granite, quartz and glass bound together and polished back — handcrafted in India into a stacked spherical form on a cylindrical base.

Because terrazzo is made from fragments, every holder has a different scatter of color through it. Up close it rewards looking at; from across the room it reads as a clean silhouette.

At a glance

  • Handcrafted terrazzo: marble, granite, quartz and glass chips
  • Stacked spherical form on a cylindrical base
  • Fits standard taper candles
  • Every piece has a unique chip pattern
  • Substantial weight for its size

How to use it

Seat the taper firmly in the cup. Terrazzo is heavy, so it holds a candle steadily even on an uneven surface.

Wipe with a damp cloth. Lift cold wax away by hand; avoid solvents, which can dull the polish.

✨ Temple Tip

Terrazzo goes with almost everything because it already contains almost everything. If an altar or a shelf has too many competing materials, a terrazzo piece ties them together rather than adding another voice.
