Tea lights & candles

Handmade tea light holders and candle sets

Small pieces, and the ones people buy in pairs and half-dozens — for Diwali, for a table setting, or as the gift you give when you do not want to give another box of sweets. Each one is made and decorated by hand, so a set has the small variations that tell you a person made it.

Round handmade candle plate painted in yellow with coloured dot art, pearls and mirror work, holding a lit tea light

Two styles

The dot-art plates are painted freehand in colour — concentric rings of dots built up around a central well for the tea light, edged with pearls and small mirrors. They are the brighter of the two and photograph well against a dark table.

The pearl-and-kundan holders are quieter and more formal: a gold well surrounded by kundan stones and rows of pearls. These are the ones usually ordered in pairs for a mantelpiece or a dining table.

Why they work as gifts

They are useful, they are small enough to post, and they are unmistakably handmade — which is most of what people want from a Diwali or housewarming gift.

For festive gifting I take bulk orders. Tell me the quantity and the date you need them by, and I'll tell you honestly whether it is possible in the time, because these are still made one at a time.

Using and caring for them

They are made for tea lights, not for pillar candles or open flame sitting directly on the surface. Keep the tea light in its metal cup.

Wipe with a dry cloth. As with the wall pieces, keep water away from the decorated surface.

Questions before ordering

Do you ship internationally?
Yes. Pieces go to the USA, Europe and other countries as well as across India. Tell me your country on WhatsApp and I'll confirm packing, timeline and shipping cost before you order.
Can I order these in a set?
Yes. Pairs and sets of four or six are the most common, and the pieces in a set are made to match while still being individually painted.
Do you take bulk orders for Diwali or corporate gifting?
Yes. Send me the quantity and the date you need them by. Because each piece is made by hand, the date matters as much as the number.
Are these safe to use with a candle?
They are made for standard tea lights in their metal cups. Do not put an open flame directly against the decorated surface.
Can I choose colours to match my table?
Yes for the dot-art plates, which are painted to order. The pearl and kundan holders are made in gold.
