Banksia Mini Hollow Tealight Holder – Natural Banksia grandis Pod

Bring the calm of the Australian bush into your space with the Banksia Mini Hollow Tealight Holder, a hand-turned piece crafted from the seed pod of Banksia grandis. This small but beautifully textured pod features its natural perforations, allowing a tealight’s glow to flicker through and create a warm, ambient light — no power or synthetic materials required.

Key Benefits

• Natural Glow: Light filters through the pod’s natural holes, casting gentle, organic patterns around the flame. 

• Eco-Sustainable: Made from sustainably collected Banksia seed pods, crafted by skilled woodturners. 

• Compact Yet Charming: Small size makes it ideal for bedside tables, shelves, windowsills or as a decorative accent.

• Durable & Safe: The pod is fire-resistant by nature and designed to hold a standard tealight safely. 

• Unique Form: Because each seed pod is naturally different, no two holders will ever look the same. 

How to Use

1. Insert a standard tealight candle into the hollow cavity.

2. Place the holder on a heat-resistant surface (e.g., ceramic tile or glass) — the pod is porous, so some warmth or residue may come through. 

3. Light the candle and enjoy the atmospheric glow.

4. When the candle has burnt out, allow the holder to cool before handling.

5. Wipe the outside with a dry or very lightly damp cloth; do not submerge the pod in water.

Specifications / Materials

• Material: Banksia grandis seed pod, hand-turned from naturally shed pods.

Safety & Care

• Use only on a stable, non-flammable surface.
