Provenance
Three pillar candle holders in graduated heights — tall: 4" x 8" H, mid: 4" x 6" H, small: 4" x ~4" H — made in wood and resin with a surface design drawn from the vocabulary of South Asian textile craft. Before Europeans called it the paisley, the boteh was the badam: the almond. Kashmiri jamavar weavers named the teardrop motif after the almond seed — the curve of one side, the point of the other, the form that holds so much pattern within such a small outline. A single jamavar shawl, built entirely from this proliferating form, could take years to complete on the specialised twill-tapestry loom.
The resin surface of these holders gives the badam design a depth appropriate to the density of its reference. The graduated set of three echoes the jamavar tradition of working across registers — large, medium, small — each holding its pattern within the whole. The tallest piece sets the scale; the smallest completes it.
Disclaimer
- These holders are made in wood and resin. Minor variations in the resin surface depth and finish are natural features of the layered process.
- Minor surface imperfections are characteristic of handcrafted resin work and are not defects.
