Drizzle Tealight Holder - Olive
Drizzle Tealight Holder - Olive
A series of blown glass taillight holders, which celebrate colour, pattern and simplicity. Each one is handblown using a different transparent colour. The finished candleholder is then decorated in a frosted pattern, which I achieve using a sandblaster.
This one is in a Olive green. Each one is handcrafted so may vary from the one photographed.
These pieces are beautiful on their own, or in groups.
Size of Drizzle Tealight Holder: Approx 13cm wide
How to maintain a sandblasted item of glass -
Sometimes greasy fingers and muck can stick to the surface of sandblasted glass. Everything I make is buffed with a liquid polymer to repel oily fingerprints. To help maintain the finish at home, you can rub with a clean tea towel and some glass cleaner, or can rub in a tiny amount of baby oil into the surface and buff with a clean cloth.
Another useful tip is washing the vase in warm soapy water and washing-up liquid with a clean soft sponge, before rinsing and drying completely with a clean tea towel.
Hand blown glass is not suitable for a dishwasher.
