Description
This grey ceramic hurricane lantern brings a calm, tactile quality to a room while holding your candle safely and steadily. Standing 14cm tall with a matching 14cm width and depth, it has a rounded, open-topped form that works as a compact candle holder for a pillar or chunky church candle, letting the flame sit low and sheltered within the ceramic body. The glazed grey finish carries a soft matte tone that catches light gently rather than reflecting it, so the surface reads as understated and warm.
We like this lantern on a mantelpiece, a windowsill or clustered at the centre of a dining table, where a group of candle holders in varying heights builds a relaxed, layered look. The neutral grey sits easily against wood, linen and stone, so it suits both country and modern interiors. Pair it with a natural wax pillar candle for a soft evening glow, or leave it unlit as a quiet sculptural piece on a shelf. It also pairs well with our other candle holders when you want a coordinated grouping.
The ceramic is sturdy and easy to look after. Wipe the outside with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to lift dust and any wax marks, avoiding harsh scourers that could dull the glaze. Always place the candle on a small saucer or holder inside if it does not have its own base, trim the wick before lighting, and never leave a burning candle unattended. Kept away from draughts, it will give a steady, contained flame.

Frequently Asked
What is this lantern made from?
It is made from glazed ceramic in a soft grey finish, giving it a solid feel and a gently matte surface that resists everyday marks.
What sort of candle does it take?
It suits a pillar or church candle that fits within the 14cm width. Choose one that sits comfortably inside so the flame stays low and sheltered.
Where does it look best?
Try it on a mantelpiece, windowsill or dining table. Grouping several candle holders of different heights together creates a warm, layered display.
Will the grey work with my decor?
The neutral grey pairs easily with wood, linen and stone, so it fits both traditional and contemporary rooms without overpowering the scheme.
How do I clean it?
Wipe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid abrasive scourers. Remove any wax gently once cool so the glaze stays smooth.
