This candle holder has all the characteristics of an artisinally made object for daily life: form, function, and traces of human touch. Not only does the off-kilter shape add interest to an otherwise traditional form, we love how the candlelight dances off the dips and curves of its surface.

Marité Acosta

From a career in fashion, textiles, food, and ceramics, Cuban-American artist Marité Acosta (pronounced MAR-a-TAE) has transitioned between artistic mediums with an enviable seamlessness. The subjective nature of art, aesthetics, and function is central to Marité’s work. Each piece she creates is made with intention and leaves behind traces of human touch. With a strong balance of function and form, her work never aims to seek out perfection but to celebrate the unexpected outcomes of the material. After living in NYC for more than 30 years, Marité now lives in Bend, Oregon, where she embraces her creative practice in clay full-time. You can find Marité's work featured in publications such as the Wall Street Journal, Bon Appetit, Remodelista, and numerous other magazines, lifestyle books, and cookbooks.
