The latest addition to the Swirl family is a set of Swirl candles in sculptural and colourful vessels. These sustainable vessels are created from the dust that remains after cutting marble on the lathe, which is then mixed with pigment and resin to produce substantial artefacts. Swirl candles are Tom’s boldest attempt yet to create objects with an afterlife that can be re-purposed as vases, containers for trinkets and storage of all types. The vessels are significant enough to be appreciated as objects in their own right for pens or plants, for spices or condiments or medications and toothbrushes, even when the scent has vanished.
