Teacup Candle - Blue & White Hostess China
- A hand poured Soy Teacup Candle Trio made with a vintage Hostess Tableware Fine Bone China teacup, saucer and side plate.
The 100% natural unscented soy wax contains no toxins and ensures a clean and even burn. The vintage china is beautifully decorative and full of history and character.
This Teacup Candle is a unique and sustainable gift for any occasion. As the candle burns down through the fine china it gives a spectacular glow. Once the candle is fully burned the teacup can be washed out with hot soapy water and re used as a tealight holder, jewellery storage, to serve condiments or simply for your next cup of tea!
At Tealightful I enjoy exploring creative ways to breathe new life into vintage fine china, ensuring that it continues to be used and appreciated for years to come. In an age when we are trying to be more sustainable it is very important to me that my craft is one of restoration and renewal.

At Tealightful I create unique gifts using beautiful vintage fine bone china.
Tealightful has developed from my love of antique and vintage fine china. I attribute my passion to my Nanny who was both a lover of fine things, despite not having many, and an amazingly creative and talented artist and innovator. I enjoy exploring creative ways to breathe new life into the china, ensuring that it continues to be used and appreciated for years to come. In an age where we are trying to be more sustainable it is very important to me that my craft is one of restoration and renewal.
My teacup candles are all hand poured and are made from natural soy wax. As the candles burn down through the fine china they give a spectacular glow. Once the candle is fully burned the teacup can be washed out and reused as a tealight holder, soap dish, to store jewellery or simply for your next cup of tea!
My jewellery creations are made from unique pieces of china that have been cut, sanded and set by hand. I use a simple sterling silver setting to allow the china to shine. The vintage china has lots of character and the patterns are either one off or very limited. I love the idea that eighty years ago someone may have been drinking tea out of a cup that is now a necklace!
I also make tiered cake stands using highly decorative vintage china plates that are full of charm and history. They vary in size from one to three tiers.
I really enjoy doing commission pieces for clients using their own family china. Creating a special piece of jewellery, a teacup candle or cake stand using china that has great sentimental value, and has often been passed down through generations, gives me a huge amount of pleasure. Revealing the finished product to clients can often be a special and emotional moment, which I am delighted to be a part of.
