Fan Of… #24 — Himalayan Rock Salt Tea Light Holder

The opacity of the salt creates a soft glow, and the varied chrystalline structure alters the light levels coming through different parts of the holder.

Have a great day 😁

Have a great day 😁

Both are skeleton watches in so much that you can see the inner workings. With the second one, you can see the inner workings both on the face and the back.
