Candlestick IV

4.75"x2.5"

This wheel-thrown candlestick brings together a quiet white glaze with expressive underglaze accents in blue, black, and soft green, creating a surface that feels both atmospheric and painterly. The form tapers upward in gentle, deliberate stages, each ring and curve catching the layered washes of color differently. Subtle brushwork and gradients wrap the candlestick like shifting bands of sky and shadow, grounding the piece in a sense of movement and depth. The white glaze softens and unifies the palette, allowing the underglaze hues to emerge organically through its translucence. With its balanced silhouette and evocative surface, the piece serves as a small sculptural landscape—meant to hold light while also reflecting the artist’s hand and the fluid character of color on clay.
