The Sutton taper holder is cast in iron with a deep bowl.
The deep bowl holds a taper candle, and the holder sits on its own or in a group of several.
A glass hurricane set over the candle surrounds the flame outdoors.
Our tendency to prefer curved, organic shapes stems from the LOC's lower neural processing demands for smooth contours, resulting in reduced amygdala activation and a safe, calming visual state (Bar & Neta, 2006). Angular or sharply defined shapes increase amygdala response because abrupt contour changes signal potential threat, producing a more alert, high-arousal experience. This is why rounded or softly contoured pieces feel visually stable and why individuals choose them when they need calm, ease, or emotional steadiness. Any product with a gentle curvature provides this low-arousal, visual comfort.
