Description

This candle stand in rich grained coconut wood will enhance your candle arrangement.

History

Coconut wood craft is found in the southern states of Kerala and Karnataka where coconut trees are in abundance. The use of coconut wood and shell to make decorative items and home accessories has taken off in the last few decades or so.

Skills

The craftsman must be imaginative to think of designs for turning coconut wood into useful yet stylish home accessories. Selection of the wood and preparing it also requires a trained eye since coconut wood has a relatively higher moisture content. Planing must be done with the grain with the fibres rising away from you.

Aesthetics

The fine rich grain of coconut shell makes this candle stand so appealing. A notable fact is that no two items made of coconut wood will have the same grain.

Material

This candle stand is crafted out of coconut wood, which has been turned and shaped.

Care

Keep away from moisture. Clean with soft, dry cotton cloth.
