Sandstone is one of the most natural and warmest-toned stones: its sandy-coloured, porous surface lends a natural texture and organic character to any object. This No.9 sandstone candlestick measures 9 × 7 × 11.5 cm in Indonesian handcrafted finish. A beautiful accessory for a natural home, spa atmosphere or meditation space.
Sandstone — natural, porous, warm
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock whose fine-grained structure gives it a unique, warm beige tone. The figure 9 is carefully worked into the stone, the surface is polished yet the natural sandstone texture remains. Because every piece is unique, the shade and fine pattern may vary slightly — this natural variation is inherent to the nature of hand-worked natural material.
What you can use it for
The 9 × 7 cm base suits a slender pillar candle (approx. 5-7 cm diameter) or a tea-light (with its aluminium casing). It finds a good place at the centre of a dining table, on a mantelpiece, on a bedroom shelf or in a meditation corner. The '9' figure looks especially fine alone, or combined with other SBN numbers to spell out years (e.g. 1 + 9 + 8 + 5 → '1985') or to mark special anniversaries.
Cleaning and care
Protect the porous sandstone material from prolonged exposure to water — do not soak or leave on a wet surface. If wax drips on it, allow it to solidify, then gently scrape off with a soft spatula or card — do not scrub. Wipe any dirt with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
