Description

Meet the taller, moodier sibling of our candle holder range. The Ember Tower stands about 20cm tall and barely 6cm wide - a slim little pillar of laser-cut steel that throws the most unreal shadow patterns when you pop a tealight inside. Each of the four side panels has a different geometric pattern nicked straight from the Australian bush - banksia seed pods, eucalyptus bark lines, and abstract dot-art that'd make your local gallery jealous.

Like all our flat-pack gear, she arrives as a set of laser-cut steel panels that click together in about two minutes flat. Tab-and-slot joints, no tools, no glue, no drama. Just line up the tabs, push them through the slots, and you've got yourself a proper little light tower. Stick her on a deck railing at sunset and watch the shadows dance across the timber - it's better than telly.

Available in raw weathering steel that develops its own unique rust character over time, matte black powdercoat for the modernists, or white powdercoat if you're going for something a bit lighter. The tall narrow shape means you can line up two or three of them along a table runner for a proper dinner party vibe, or just park one on your bedside table for a bit of cosy ambience.

To ensure your custom steel artwork remains a beautiful centerpiece for years to come, here are some tailored care tips based on the material you chose.

For Corten Steel (Natural Rust Finish)

Corten steel is designed to evolve. Its appearance will change over time as it develops a protective "patina" (the rust layer).

Embrace the Process: The rust layer is a natural shield that protects the steel from deep corrosion. You don’t need to treat or oil it.
Prevent Staining: During the first few months, rain or high humidity can cause some "run-off" of the rust. If hanging indoors or against a light-colored wall, ensure the spacers (standoffs) are used to keep the piece from touching the wall directly.
Cleaning: Simply hose it down or wipe it with a damp cloth if it becomes dusty. Avoid using soaps or chemicals, as these can disrupt the natural weathering process.

For Painted Mild Steel (Modern Look)

The painted finish provides a sleek, protective barrier against the elements.

Gentle Cleaning: Use a soft, microfiber cloth to remove dust. For fingerprints or smudges, a damp cloth with a tiny drop of mild dish soap is all you need.
Avoid Abrasives: Never use steel wool, scouring pads, or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can scratch or dull the paint finish.
Touch-ups: If the paint is ever chipped by accident, we recommend a small dab of exterior-grade metal touch-up paint to prevent moisture from reaching the raw steel beneath.

General Handling & Safety

Watch the Edges: Because your piece is hand-cut from 2.0mm steel, some edges may be sharp. We recommend wearing gloves while unboxing and hanging the piece.
Secure Mounting: Steel is durable but heavy. Always use the provided hardware and ensure you are mounting into a secure surface (stud, brick, or using the correct anchors for plasterboard).
Environment: While Australian steel is incredibly tough, pieces hung in high-salinity environments (right on the coast) may age faster. A quick rinse with fresh water once or twice a year will help remove salt buildup.
