A big sister to our popular Salt Votive, this pure, simple Salt Candleholder is carved from Egyptian Salt that’s compressed deep beneath the ground near the oasis of Siwa, Egypt. For generations local artisans have sourced this dense, durable material to make beautiful, functional objects. Stripes of grey-brown sand are visible in the Candleholders, remnants of thousands of years of sandstorms in the area. Variations in the salt make each candleholder truly one of a kind.

Simply add one of our Bloomist Beeswax Votives or Tea Light Candles to create soft, flattering light that’s filtered through the salt crystals.

Note: Store in a dry place and any avoid liquid as the salt will dissolve.

Meet the Maker

ABOUT SIROCCO

10 years ago, Danish native Malou Lenskjold visited her cousins Ellen and Henrik Raven who lived in the Siwa Oasis in the Sahara Desert. Inspired by local handcrafts and materials in the region, Malou, Ellen, and Henrik launched their family-based company, Sirocco in 2010 and introduced Egyptian made products to the Danish market. Working with local artisans, Sirocco designs and creates a wide range of furniture and accessories from natural materials including salt, alabaster, copper, stone, wool, and cotton. All products are made using ancient handcrafting traditions that have been handed down from generation-to-generation.

Product Care

The base of these candleholders may become hot; we recommend adding a small layer of coarse salt or sand under the candle or use flameless LED candles. If using wax candles, be sure to keep the wick trimmed and the flame low.

Not for outdoor use, even in covered areas. Salt should never come in contact with water as it will dissolve. Dust with soft, dry cloth.
