Rhythm - Hexagon Stained Glass Candle Holder
Rhythm - Hexagon Stained Glass Candle Holder
Simple geometry. Simple colors. A quiet sense of movement.
This handmade hexagon stained glass candle holder is part of a collection inspired by the beauty of simple geometric forms and carefully chosen colors. Made using the traditional Tiffany copper foil technique, it combines translucent glass with colored glass panels arranged in an alternating pattern around a six-sided form.
The design is deliberately minimal: translucent and colored panels simply follow one another around the hexagon, creating a balanced rhythm and a subtle sense of movement. When a candle is lit inside, the translucent glass allows the warm glow of the flame to shine through, while the colored panels add small touches of color and character.
The idea behind the collection is simple: create something expressive using only basic shapes and a limited palette.
This design is available in three color variations:
- Blue - cool and serene
- Green - natural and fresh
- Yellow - warm and luminous
All three versions have the same hexagonal design and differ only in the color of the accent glass.
Handmade Plaster Base
The stained glass shade comes with a handmade plaster base, lightly tinted to complement the color of the glass.
The base is finished with three protective coats of varnish, helping to protect the plaster from moisture and everyday use. The sealed surface allows you to place a candle directly on the base.
A tealight candle is included, so your new candle holder is ready to use as soon as it arrives.

Its minimalist design makes it a natural fit for modern, contemporary, minimalist, Scandinavian, and eclectic interiors.

Part of a Geometric Collection
This hexagonal design belongs to a collection of handmade stained glass candle holders built around the same idea: simple forms, simple colors, and the beauty that can emerge from their combination.
The collection includes different geometric silhouettes, allowing the pieces to be displayed individually or together. Each design has its own rhythm while sharing the same minimalist visual language.
Every piece is handmade individually, so slight variations in glass texture, color, solder lines, and plaster surface are natural. These small differences are part of the handmade character of the piece and make each candle holder unique.
Nothing complicated. Just a simple shape, a few colors, and the warm light of a candle. Sometimes, that is enough.

The Story Behind This Design
How Each Handmade Stained Glass Piece Is Made
Every piece is individually handcrafted using the traditional copper foil technique, originally developed by Louis Comfort Tiffany in the late 19th century. Today, this time-honored method remains one of the most intricate ways to create stained glass art, requiring precision and patience from start to finish.
Each piece goes through a meticulous, multi-step process:
Design - Every artwork begins with an original design, carefully planned to balance color, light, and composition.
Glass Cutting - Each individual shape is hand-cut from sheets of colored stained glass, following the pattern with precision.
Grinding & Fitting - Every glass piece is ground by hand and repeatedly test-fitted to ensure clean lines and a perfect assembly.
Cleaning - Before the next stage, every glass element is thoroughly cleaned to ensure proper adhesion and a flawless finish.
Copper Foiling - Each piece is individually wrapped with thin copper foil by hand, a delicate process that prepares the glass for soldering.
Assembly - All glass pieces are carefully positioned and secured, bringing the design together for the first time.
Hand Soldering - Every joint is soldered by hand, permanently bonding the entire composition into a strong, unified piece.
Cleaning Again - Flux residues are carefully removed, preparing the piece for its final finish.
Patina (when required by the design) - Depending on the design, a patina may be applied to the solder lines to achieve their intended color and aesthetic.
Final Assembly - Hanging hardware, chains, decorative elements, and any finishing components are individually attached by hand.
Polishing & Protection - Finally, the entire piece is polished and finished with a protective coat of natural carnauba wax, enhancing its appearance and helping preserve its finish over time.
Because every stage is completed by hand, slight variations in glass texture, color, transparency, solder lines, and overall appearance are natural and expected. The character of stained glass itself means that each sheet interacts with light differently, making every finished piece truly one of a kind.
This is not a mass-produced or factory-made product. It is a handcrafted stained glass artwork created with patience, skill, and careful attention to every detail - made to be enjoyed for years to come.
