Wood Carving Buddha with Candle Holder

Wooden Buddha Tealight Holder — Hand-Carved Calm for a Quiet Corner

A seated Buddha carved from solid wood, with a small tealight slot set into the side. Light a candle in the evening and the flame throws the carved folds of the robe and the lines of the face into soft relief. It works as a showpiece on its own during the day, and changes character completely once the candle is lit.

Craft and finish

The piece is carved by hand, so the grain and the depth of the detailing vary slightly from one to the next. The wood is left in its natural tone with a smooth finish, no heavy paint or lacquer covering the surface.

• Dimensions: 16cm length, 13cm height, 10cm width
• Material: Wood
• Care: Wipe with a dry cloth
• Package includes: 1 Buddha with candle holder

Where it fits

Most people keep it in a meditation corner or pooja space, but it sits just as well on a living room side table, a study desk, or a bedroom shelf. It takes a standard tealight candle, which is easy to replace.

As a gift

Housewarmings, birthdays and anniversaries are the usual occasions for this one. It suits people who like calm, understated decor rather than bright or busy pieces, and it does not need much explanation when handed over.
