Tall candle holder made from reclaimed skateboards by Skateriors, featuring visible coloured wood layers and a clean, sculptural form.
This candle holder started as a skateboard deck. Once the board reached the end of its ride, it was collected and given a new purpose by Skateriors.
Skateboards are built from multiple thin layers of pressed maple wood, often dyed in different colours. When reshaped, those layers become visible as colourful stripes running through the material. In a tall candle holder form, those lines create a vertical pattern that feels graphic and balanced.
The design is simple and steady, letting the layered wood speak for itself. Whether placed on a dining table, a shelf or a windowsill, it adds colour and structure without needing extra decoration.
If you’d like to learn more about how Skateriors transforms collected skateboard decks into interior objects, you can explore their full story via the maker page.
Because each candle holder is made from reclaimed skateboards collected at indoor skateparks, the colour stripes and wood patterns vary per piece. The shape stays consistent, but every holder is visually different.
