Poleng Medium

Description

When you visit Bali you can’t fail to notice the ubiquitous black and white chequered cloth that often wraps a giant tree, adorns a statue or appears as an umbrella in a temple or shrine. ‘Poleng’ represents the idea of dualism in Bali, a concept that conveys the idea that two opposite things depend on each other to exist. You can’t have day without light, low without high, joy without sorrow. Our Poleng design plays on this idea. The glass container is handblown and made from recycled glass sourced from local Balinese recycling centers and is of high quality, making it perfect for reuse after the candle has burned out. Each candle may differ slightly due to the handcrafted nature of Bali Sama Sama glassware, meaning that your purchase is a one-of-a-kind work of art. As with all Bali Sama Sama products, your purchase supports local employment and offers a direct connection to the revered Bali culture.
