Metal sculpture with a candle holder, in an Oak base

£75.00

Single Wisp Spiralis Sculpure with a candle holder- in an Oak base.

I have always loved watching flames in fires and am lucky enough to see this every time I light my forge. The flames have inspired me to make a series of sculptures, all of which form my “Spiralis” range. They have either 2 or 3 pieces of metal – I call them “wisps”.  According to folklore a wisp is an atmospheric ghost light seen by travellers at night. I have recently discovered that the Latin for Will o’ Wisp is ignis fatuus which means “giddy flame”, the sculptures are aptly named “Double Wisp and Triple Wisp”

Once I have completed the metal work I set it into a piece of wood that I think suits the sculpture. The wood is all sourced from a local tree surgeon, some of the wood we are able to name other pieces we are not sure about! This piece is in a rectangular piece of Oak, giving it a contemporary look.

These pieces would grace both contemporary and traditional homes, the heights range from 46cm to 53cm. Made by Chris The Smith.
