Longpi Pottery
Longpi pottery is an age old technique unique to just two villages in the North East of India. Made by mixing ground black stone with locally found clay, our Longpi pieces for both the home and garden are characterised by a deep black patina, with the burnished finish creating a natural protective seal.
Longpi pottery is made using an age-old technique unique to just two villages in north-east India. Made by mixing ground black stone with locally found clay, Longpi pieces are hand built, left in the sun to dry out and then woodfired. The burnished finish creates a natural protective seal, whilst characterising Longpi with its deep black patina. Tapers inwards before flaring outwards at the top. Being handmade, each will vary slightly in shape and size.
Always place your Longpi candle holder on a protective surface away from other furnishings and handle with care, as it will get hot. Take caution near open flames and never leave burning candles unattended. The candle holder fits our English Beeswax Stubby Candles.
