African Metal Candle Holder / Two Women Recycled Figurine

Bring a piece of African folk art to your table with this handmade African metal candle holder. Two slim, stylized women stand side by side on a rounded wire base, each with a cone-shaped skirt in a bright color. Their raised arms hold a round plate between them, with a spike in the center that holds a candle in place.

The figures are cut and shaped from metal by hand, then painted in warm yellow, orange, and red, with a silver ring at each neck. The rough, hand-worked finish and the simple lines give the piece an earthy, rustic look. It works well as a candle holder and also stands on its own as a small sculpture when no candle is in it.

Use it on a dining table, mantel, sideboard, shelf, or bedside table, or as a gift for friends who love African art. Choose a pillar or taper candle that suits the spike, and use a flameless LED candle for a safer, drip-free display. Each piece is made by hand, so size, color, and paint detail vary slightly from piece to piece.
