Antique 19th-Century Indian White Marble Candle Holder | Hand-Carved Lotus Flower Motif | Spiritual Heritage Accent
Bring timeless elegance and serene symbolism into your space with this exquisite Antique Indian White Marble Candle Holder, hand-carved in the shape of a blooming lotus flower. Dating back to the 19th century, this tactile object is more than a decorative piece—it's a quiet echo of India’s spiritual traditions, sculpted in luminous white marble.
✦ Sacred Symbolism & Sculptural Craftsmanship
Painstakingly carved by skilled artisans from solid white marble, the piece reflects the sacred lotus—a symbol of purity, rebirth, and enlightenment in Indian culture. Every petal is sculpted with soft precision, radiating outward from the central candle cavity with a delicate sense of movement and balance. The result is both meditative and ornamental.
Place a candle in the centre and watch as the flickering flame illuminates the marble’s natural translucence, casting a gentle ambient glow across your space.
