Charlotte Manser Ceramics

Elevate your home décor with these beautifully handmade ceramic candlestick holders, crafted exclusively for Lemon and Jinja by Charlotte Manser Ceramics. Each piece is stamped on the base with the CMC logo and our Lemon & Jinja mark: a subtle detail that celebrates true craftsmanship.

Designed to fit a standard 22mm candle, these holders bring warmth, character, and artisanal charm to any space.

How They’re Made

Every candlestick holder is individually handmade in a Berkshire pottery studio, using traditional techniques paired with clean, modern design.

• Small Batch Craftsmanship: Produced in limited runs of around 30 pieces, each holder is shaped over two days and left to dry for a week.

• Fired Twice for Strength: The first firing reaches 1000°C, preparing the clay for glazing. Each glaze is mixed in-house from raw powders and applied by hand, creating beautiful, organic patterns. The final firing at 1260°C ensures long-lasting durability and a refined finish.

• Sustainably Crafted: Made using renewable materials and eco-conscious methods, supporting ethical and low-impact ceramic production.

Care Instructions

• Suitable for handwashing

• Safe for use with lit candles

• Natural variations in glaze and texture make every piece completely unique

Perfect for cosy evenings, table settings, mantle décor, or as a thoughtful handmade gift, these candlestick holders bring a touch of timeless, small-batch beauty to any home.

Elevate your kitchen with these beautifully handcrafted ceramic butter crocks: each one made in small batches in the Berkshire pottery studio. Designed to blend traditional craftsmanship with a modern, functional aesthetic, these crocks make your kitchen feel a little more special.

Every piece starts its journey as raw clay, carefully shaped by hand over two days. After drying for a week, the crockers are fired to 1000°C, then dipped or poured with the custom-mixed glazes to create unique flowing patterns. A second firing at 1260°C ensures durability, character, and a stunning finish that’s completely one-of-a-kind.

A butter crock is a simple, traditional way to keep butter fresh and spreadable without refrigeration. It works by using water to create an airtight seal, protecting the butter from air and keeping it at the perfect consistency for everyday use.

To use, simply pack softened butter firmly into the lid of the crock, making sure there are no air pockets. Add a small amount of cold water to the base, then place the lid into the crock so the butter sits below the water line. The water forms a natural seal, helping to keep the butter fresh. Change the water every couple of days and keep the crock in a cool spot, away from direct heat or sunlight.

Butter stored in a crock stays soft, easy to spread and delicious, ready whenever you need it. A lovely addition to the kitchen for anyone who enjoys real butter at its best, while reducing the need for foil or single-use packaging.

Dimensions:

Approximately 11x10cm

Built for everyday use, these ceramics are microwave and dishwasher safe, designed to last, and crafted with renewable materials and low-impact studio practices.

Because each crock is handmade, no two pieces are the same: expect natural variations, individual markings, and glaze patterns that celebrate the art of true small-batch pottery.
