Description
This scented candle sits inside a glass Christmas bauble, finished in a deep, mirror-bright red that catches every flicker of light around it. The bauble is made in two halves: the lower half holds the candle, and the upper half lifts away like a lid, topped with a gold-tone cap and ring just like the ornaments on a tree. Closed, it stands about 11cm tall and 8cm across, and it holds a 60g scented candle. It is a small piece, but the glossy mercury glass finish gives it plenty of presence on a shelf or table.
We like it best on the Christmas table, where its small flame and red shine add a warm glow among the plates and glasses, or on a sideboard or mantelpiece through the festive weeks. With the top in place it looks just like a large tree bauble, so it keeps the room looking festive between lightings as well as when it is lit. It also makes a thoughtful Christmas gift: it comes complete and ready to light, and the bauble shape means it already looks like a present before any wrapping goes on.
The red glass has a smooth, glossy surface, and the gold-tone cap gives a bright contrast at the top. To light it, lift the top half away and set it to one side, then stand the candle half on a stable, level surface away from draughts and anything that could catch. As with any candle, never leave it burning unattended, and keep it out of reach of children and pets. Once it has cooled, dust the glass with a soft dry cloth to keep the shine at its best. For gifting, it needs little more than a ribbon tied through the gold-tone ring and a tag with a festive message.
