Circle of Angels — Tealight Holder

Hand-molded from clay, this piece gathers five winged guardians standing shoulder to shoulder in an unbroken circle, cradling a central space designed to hold a single tealight. As the flame flickers within, light dances across each carved face and feathered wing — a quiet echo of community, protection, and the sacred bonds that hold us together. The weathered white finish, brushed through with soft terracotta-rose pigment, gives each figure the look of something unearthed — timeworn, storied, and touched by hands that came before.

Inspired by traditional Balinese clay-molding techniques passed down through generations of artisans, this piece captures the raw, tactile quality of handcrafted work — every fold, crease, and etched feather shaped by hand, meaning no two pieces are ever quite the same.
