🕯️African Candle Holders from Zimbabwe’s Bush Workshops
In the heart of Zimbabwe’s bushveld, local artisans transform scrap metal, natural stone, and seasoned wood into evocative candle holders that blend rustic charm with cultural depth. These handcrafted pieces are more than functional—they’re expressions of resilience, sustainability, and heritage.

🔨 Crafted in the Bush: Materials & Meaning
•     Scrap Metal: Repurposed from old tools, wire, and industrial offcuts, shaped into elegant or whimsical forms.
•     Natural Stone: Often soapstone, chosen for its smooth texture and earthy tones, grounding each piece in Zimbabwe’s geology.
•     Seasoned Wood: Reclaimed plantation-grown hardwoods like ironwood or ebony, polished with natural wax for a warm finish.
Each candle holder is made in small bush workshops, where artisans work with minimal machinery, relying on hand tools, skill, and tradition. These workshops provide vital employment in rural communities.

🌿 Why These Candle Holders Stand Out

These candle holders are available in pairs or sets, with variations in size and style—from minimalist metal-and-wood combinations to sculptural pieces featuring animals or tribal motifs.
