Kate Aimers is the founder of Grow & Bloom Studios, founded after Kate graduated from Falmouth University in 2020.
Kate studied illustration, which is evident by her bold and expressive brushstrokes on these heavenly candle plinths. A cottage sits on a hill, surrounded by a starry sky - with gold lustre glaze which dances in the candlelight. There's also a peaceful dove soaring through the wind, again with a smattering of gold stars.
These stoneware plinths are handmade by Kate in Cornwall. The rustic clay contains flecks of iron which, when fired under a clear glaze, make little flecks of ochre and russet. The hand painted decorations are in a deep indigo.
With a flat base and a hanging hole, you can either sit these shelves on a surface or fix them to the wall with a simple pin. The shelf is roomy enough for a tealight, or even a beeswax candle.
Dimensions: 13cm tall x 13cm wide x shelf depth 5.5cm
