"Living Harmony" is a handcrafted coaster designed to elegantly hold candle tins. Made from solid American Black Walnut, this piece features a striking Tree of Life design inlaid with black resin, adding a modern yet timeless touch to its natural beauty.

The coaster has been meticulously worked with six grades of sandpaper, ensuring a smooth and refined surface, before being polished with beeswax to achieve a lustrous finish. This careful craftsmanship highlights the rich grain of the walnut wood, making it as delightful to touch as it is to look at.

This coaster has been polished and finished with bees wax.

The coaster measures 103mm in diameter and 20mm tall.



This coaster is part of a limited series designed exclusively for Alice Loves Crafting by Anura Joinery. Each coaster is double-sided, with the top featuring an inset, resin-filled design and a circular slot tailored to securely hold a 63mm essential oil candle tin. The reverse side is shaped to accommodate our larger fragrance oil candle tins.

Anura Joinery is dedicated to creating truly unique pieces. Each design is crafted only once per wood species, ensuring that while someone else may own a “a flutter in Walnut” design in a different wood, no one else will ever own another quite like yours.
The crafting process begins by carving a smooth depression to fit the larger candle tins, followed by cutting circular blanks from solid wood. A laser engraver then etches a 2mm-deep design into the wood, including the small candle tin slot.

Once the engraving is complete, the design is filled with resin (usually black with a subtle sparkle). After the resin sets, it is carefully sanded down, the coaster’s edges are rounded, and the entire piece is polished with six grades of sandpaper for a silky-smooth surface and a glossy finish. Finally, each coaster is treated with beeswax on a polishing wheel, enhancing both its tactile appeal and visual elegance.

Whilst we will never sell another copy of your chosen coaster to anyone else, Anura Joinery had confirmed that they will be happy to replicate your chosen coaster if you would like to purchase more than one.
