Candle holder

Project by Tony posted 329 days ago 345 views 0 times favorited 10 comments Add to Favorites Watch

Another attempt at turning. The candle holder is reversible, slightly different shapes on the top or bottom.

The wood is Walnut 4” High and 3 1/2” wide, sanded to 800 and finished with shellac and wax.

This is a nice piece, Tony. Making it reversible add an interesting touch to it as well. Seeing posts like this make me regret not having a lathe in my shop. I am sure you had fund doing this.

Another nice project, Tony! I like that it is reversible. I had planned to give candlesticks as Christmas gifts this year, but didn’t get them done.

Beautiful!!

Tony, the walnut and white candle are a perfect combination. I love the simplicity of the shape- it makes for a classical design.

Sweet turning and a great idea to make it reversible : )

By golly, Tony, that’s a dandy gift idea. I might have to steal this one for next Christmas.

Very neat idea Tony.
I was thinking of making a few pieces like that for serving plates to raise them off the table to hold jellies, pickles etc.
Women always have problems with space on an open serving dinner.
