tealight holders hand crafted from limoges porcelain - glazed on the inside, unglazed lace structure on the outside.
the haptic decor elements of the wafer-thin cast lanterns are created by dipping vintage lace into porcelain cream of clay + then applying to the leather hard lanterns. when lighted the yarn of the lace burns without residue - leaving only the porcelain casting behind. each piece becomes one of a kind, reflecting and conserving the uniqueness of the antique lace for ever.
