Cumulus, Sculptured Candle Holder from Reclaimed Burned Wood and White Marble
About the Item
This artfully sculpted candle holder is a testament to innovative reuse, handcrafted from repurposed wood and remnants of pristine white marble. With delicate precision, I've enhanced the wood using the traditional Japanese Yakisugi method, and it's then elegantly finished with natural oils and sealed with beeswax. Beneath, a subtle cork lining ensures your surfaces remain pristine.
A distinguished member of the 'Melting Collection', this piece is emblematic of a world grappling with the alarming pace of climate change—a narrative largely driven by human endeavors. The daily sights of receding ice caps and thawing tundras bear witness to this. In its design, the melding of wood and stone emerges as a potent symbol, reminding us of the collective imperative to safeguard our environment.
Each component of this candle holder narrates a tale of reclamation. Sourced from scrapyards, rediscovered on city streets, or salvaged from soon-to-be-demolished structures, these materials find a renewed purpose. This metamorphosis of forgotten elements into elegant designs not only represents a joyous creative endeavour but also underscores the potential for envisioning a future where harmony with nature is paramount.

Gobi Design
For Gabor, to create is to search. He strives to design in a way that does not harm his environment. The moment, the given object and its potential are always the leading force. This is also the main philosophy of gobi.design - the brand aims to combine environmental thinking with a love of design. His vision is for everyone to receive the gifts of a healthy environment on an equal footing, which will then lead to sustainable daily living. This task is both a gift and a huge responsibility, but this is the way how change can be achieved. The objects of gobi.design are part of a natural cycle. Inspired by the trends of upcycling, hygge, wabi-sabi, slow living, degrowth and the like, where the objects do not disappear, they just continue to be shaped by various subtle or harsh forces. He tries to use as much natural materials as possible. He works with them using traditional techniques (eg Yakisugi - Japanese technique of preserving wood with burning). Objects include furniture, accessories and sculptures, but they have one thing in common - each one is salvaged from waste.
