Description
This iron candle holder takes the shape of a Christmas present, its open frame tied up with silver ribbon and topped with a looped bow. Each side is made of fine wavy wires set either side of a flat ribbon band, and an arched opening at the front lets you reach the small round cup at the base, which holds a single tealight. The whole piece is finished in shiny silver, so it catches the flame and throws little glints of light back through the wires. It stands 22cm tall and measures 9cm wide and 9cm deep, a slim upright shape that takes up little room.
We think it suits a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a windowsill or the centre of a dining table through the Christmas season. The small 9cm footprint means it fits on a narrow sill or a crowded shelf where a wider lantern would not, and at 22cm tall it stands high enough to be noticed across the room. The silver tone sits happily beside white decorations, green garlands and clear glass baubles, and it brings a gentle flicker to a hallway table on dark winter evenings. It also makes a thoughtful Christmas gift, and there is a certain charm in giving a present that already looks like one.
The frame is made from iron with a silver finish, and the tealight cup sits low and central at the base, inside the cage. Because the sides are open, the candlelight spills out between the wires on every side. Dust it with a soft dry cloth and, if needed, wipe it with a slightly damp cloth, then dry it straight away. As with any candle, never leave a burning tealight unattended and keep it away from anything that could catch. Set a tealight in the cup, place it where it will be seen, and let it glow through the evenings leading up to Christmas.
