Hollow Owl in the Garden Carved Rain Tree Candle Holder

  • $24.99

In ancient Celtic, Hindu and Egyptian cultures, the owl is seen as the ruler of the night and seer of souls. This Aera Vida original piece depicts this symbolism by featuring a native Thai owl perched above a blooming lotus flower nest as it boldly surveys the dark of the night. By placing a tealight sized candle into the center of the lotus flower, this piece instantly comes to life by adding a powerful yet serene mood to nearly any room. Artisan Aree crafts this piece by hand from locally sustainable rain tree wood in her village in northern Thailand.

Aree’s journey in wood carving began at an earlier age, taught by her father, a master carver from northern Thailand. Growing up under his guidance, Aree developed a deep appreciation for the craft, and over the years, her skills flourished. Today, Aree takes great pride in her work, and she has become well-known in her region, particularly for being one of the few women woodcarvers in a traditionally male-dominated field. Aree’s woodcarving business not only showcases her talent but also helps support several local families in her province, providing them with steady income. She is proud of the impact her work has on her community, and the legacy of craftsmanship she continues to uphold.
