{"product_id":"akello-turned-mango-wood-candlestick-natural","title":"Akello Turned Mango Wood Candlestick - Natural","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Akello is a candlestick turned from mango wood, 46cm tall and 16cm across the foot. The profile runs from a wide domed base up through a stack of turned rings to a bulbous centre, then narrows and opens again into a flared dish at the top. The dish is lined with iron and takes a pillar candle, which stands on it rather than dropping into a socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 46cm this is a floor-standing candlestick rather than a mantelpiece one, and on a hearth beside a fireplace the flame stands at about the height of a low chair back. That suits a hearth, a corner beside a log basket, or the foot of a bookcase. On a dining table it would stand in the line of sight across it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wood is mango and the dish is iron. Each one is turned by hand, so the grain runs differently from candlestick to candlestick. Mango is grown first for its fruit and cut for timber only once the trees have stopped bearing, which is what makes the wood available at all. The candle is not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e46cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMango Wood \u0026amp; Iron\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.8kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size candle does it take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA pillar candle.

An edible oil such as olive or walnut rubbed into the wood with a cloth will protect it, though it will darken the tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it get hot in use?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Stand the candle securely, keep it out of reach of children, wait until it has cooled fully before handling it, and never leave a burning candle unattended.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nkuku","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53406483874059,"sku":"AC0201","price":72.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/AC0201_01_packshot_hero_3b564a8f-9116-4fc3-8205-99d523ea84f9.jpg?v=1790867511","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/akello-turned-mango-wood-candlestick-natural","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
