The Serenity Monk Votive Candleholder Duo is a handmade, designer-signed pair created by artist and restorer Derya Kurdoğlu for Dea'rt İstanbul to bring a calm, contemplative sense of gratitude and inner balance into your home. With stylized monk forms gently holding offering bowls, the set reads as both a sculptural ritual object and a refined source of soft candlelight for modern interiors.
Hand-cast from premium, durable polyester resin and individually finished with high-quality paints in a warm antique gold tone, each figure carries a quiet symbolic gesture of offering and receiving. Placed on a console, sideboard, low coffee table or a personal altar corner, this collectible duo becomes a serene focal point that elevates everyday spaces with understated, artistic presence.
Inspiration – Quiet Light and Living Philosophy
Kurdoğlu envisioned the Serenity Monk duo as a poetic reminder of inner peace and continual transformation. Instead of realism, she chose elongated proportions, softened facial expressions and fluid robe folds to emphasize stillness over drama. The offering bowls create a natural place for tealights or small votive candles, turning the idea of “inner light” into a tangible, gently glowing ritual.
Effortless Concept Styling
Designed for living rooms, entryways, meditation and wellness corners, the Serenity Monk duo styles effortlessly across calm, layered settings. Use the taller monk as your anchor on a console or sideboard, then place the smaller figure slightly forward or to the side for a balanced, gallery-like composition.
Pair with simple pillar candles, incense holders, natural stones, neutral ceramics and thoughtful books to deepen the set’s sculptural language. The antique gold finish harmonizes beautifully with black, white, stone and warm wood palettes, fitting both contemporary and classic interiors.

Artistic Notes
Because each Serenity Monk piece is hand-cast and hand-painted, subtle variations in texture, patina and tonal depth are intentional signatures of craftsmanship. The antique gold surface diffuses candlelight into a soft, intimate glow. Displayed together, the tall and small monks evoke a quiet sense of balance and inner rhythm—transforming the duo from simple decor into a gentle, poetic reminder to slow down and breathe.
