The Candle Trunk - Natural
by Altin
Bring a piece of nature into your home with our unique Candle Trunk. Expertly handcrafted from high-quality wood, each piece follows the natural shape of a tree trunk, adding organic elegance and rustic charm to any space.
Partly filled with wax, it’s designed for long-lasting use, once the wax burns down, simply refill it with your favorite candle wax to keep the cozy glow alive. What makes this candle even more special is its history: these original wooden pots were once used for stamping rice, carrying a beautiful cultural backstory into your home.
Handmade from natural materials, subtle variations in grain, color, and texture make every Candle Trunk truly authentic and one of a kind.

The Idea
The Candle Trunk - Natural was drawn for The Ember Collection — which meant working inside the collection's rules before anything else: one material family, honest thickness, and no detail that exists only to be looked at.
The prototype went through the workshop three times. What survived is the version where nothing further could be taken away without the piece stopping working.
The Designer
Altin finishes nothing to a permanent state. The brass leaves the workshop bright and is expected to darken where hands fall most often.
It makes each piece a record of the household it lives in.
