A colleague of mine give me a bit of a teak plank which have been deck plank onboard at the Norwegian barque SS Statsraad Lehmkuhl from Bergen. The Barque was built in Bremerhaven, Germany between 1912 and 1914 so the plank is really old.
He want me to make a couple of candleholders he can use onboard in his yacht, and this is the result I came up with.

The candleholders measure 80 mm in diameter and is 35, 55,75 and 95 mm in hight. They is sanded to 400 grit and treated with boiled linseed oil.

Thanks for looking and comments

Bergen is a beautiful city.

Oeistein, you are a lucky guy with getting this old teak, the best wood you can get.
The tealights are very good, nice shape with a good base for using them.
