Artisan Crafted Black Pottery Tealight Candle Holder, "Glowing Owl"
The soft light of a tealight candle is set to illuminate the gorgeous handcrafted artistry of this handsome owl. Its wings detailed with precise openwork, the owl candleholder is crafted by hand by Anakarem. She works with Oaxaca's unique black pottery techniques which, include using a quartz or an obsidian to polish the candleholder to achieve a matte sheen even after firing in an oak wood fueled kiln.
In case of ash residues from being fired in a wood kiln, please wipe with a dry cloth.

"Perfect Desk Accessory I"
I bought this for my computer desk because it was very unique. However after a short period of time, with only pencils and favorite pens to place in it; it broke I to pieces ?? unexpectedly.
