Hand-Thrown Ceramic Candle Holders by Eleanor Torbati

Hand-thrown stoneware candle holders and match pots by Norwich potter Eleanor Torbati. Each piece is crafted from natural clay with understated glazes and designed to pair beautifully with our pure beeswax candles.

Hand-Thrown Ceramics by British Potter Eleanor Torbati

Handmade in Norwich, Eleanor Torbati’s stoneware ceramics reflect the natural textures and muted tones of the north Norfolk landscape.

Working in small batches, she creates functional, minimal designs that allow the character of the clay to take centre stage. Each piece is hand-thrown, giving it a unique identity shaped by the maker’s craft.

Handmade Norfolk Pottery Inspired by the Landscape

Rooted in the coastline and countryside of north Norfolk, these ceramics echo the quiet, organic qualities of the region.

Using traditional hand-thrown pottery techniques, Eleanor shapes refined candle holders and tableware finished with minimal glazing so the natural beauty of the stoneware remains visible. Each piece brings the essence of the landscape indoors.

British-Made Ceramics with Natural Character

Crafted in her Norwich studio, Eleanor Torbati’s ceramics celebrate the charm of handmade stoneware. Soft glazes, natural clay textures and simple forms give each candle holder a calm, grounded presence. Subtle variations in shape and finish are part of the beauty of handmade pottery, making every piece truly one of a kind.
