Tealight Cottage and Townhouse, by 𝗛𝗔𝗟✱𝗛𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗦 for &Klevering Amsterdam.
In collaboration with English ceramicist and illustrator Hal Haines, this set of hand-painted tealights brings narrative charm to your interior. Inspired by classic English table settings and Hal’s distinctive visual storytelling, each ceramic piece features bold details and a playful design. Combine multiple tealights and candle holders to build your own whimsical candlelit village.
The tealight consists of two parts, a base and a decorative lid, creating a glowing moment when lit. Carefully packed in &klevering’s special edition box featuring Haines’ artwork. Each house is hand-painted and can therefore vary from house to house, which gives the house character.
Note: Ceramic can become very hot. Always use on a heat-resistant surface, avoid touching or moving while in use, and lift the lid carefully from the sides. For added safety, we recommend using an LED tealight."

About 𝗛𝗔𝗟✱𝗛𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗦
Hal is an interdisciplinary artist mostly working in ceramics and painting onto board, upcycled furniture and textiles. He lived in Scotland for three years to pursue a BA in Communication Design at the Glasgow School of Art, where he graduated in 2019. He now lives in St Leonards-On-Sea and works nearby at his self-built studio.
Hal worked as a photographer for 8 years before he developed his current multidisciplinary process. His photography practice took him around the world capturing people and places, with a keen interest in visual storytelling. This has influenced his illustrative approach to surface decoration.
Hal's own interior design taste is broad and eclectic. In his pieces he likes to compliment the colourful and expressive paintings with clean lines and contemporary materials in order to befit many different environments: from rustic country interiors to mid century design or 90s modernity. The visual motifs in his work often reference the natural environment, life at home and his experience growing up as a queer person in the English countryside.
