Description
This large hurricane lantern brings a soft, grounded feel to a room, working as a candle holder that shelters a flame while letting its glow spread through the space. Made from ceramic with a muted grey finish, it has the gentle weight and subtle surface variation you would expect from a fired piece, so no two look exactly the same. The rounded, open form stands 21cm tall and measures 18cm across, giving it enough presence to anchor a table or shelf without crowding the surface around it.
It suits a pillar candle or a chunky church candle set within the opening, and the tall sides help protect the flame from draughts on a windowsill or an open shelf. We like it grouped with smaller candle holders of varying heights for a layered look, or left to stand alone as a quiet focal point. The grey tone sits easily alongside natural wood, stone and linen, so it settles into country kitchens, calm bedrooms and relaxed living rooms alike. Add a trailing sprig of eucalyptus nearby and the whole arrangement feels considered.
Ceramic is easy to look after and keeps its colour over time. Wipe the inside and outside with a soft, slightly damp cloth to lift dust and any stray wax, then dry it fully. Trim your wick before lighting and never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep the surface clear of pooled wax by letting candles cool before removing them, and the lantern will stay looking fresh for years.

Frequently Asked
What is the lantern made from?
It is made from fired ceramic with a matte grey finish, giving it a solid, stable base and gentle surface variation across each piece.
What type of candle does it take?
It works best with a pillar or church candle placed inside the open top. Choose a candle that sits comfortably within the 18cm width so the flame stays clear of the sides.
Where does it look best?
Use it on a dining table, mantel, windowsill or open shelf. Group it with other candle holders at different heights, or let it stand alone as a calm focal point.
How do I clean it?
Wipe inside and out with a soft, slightly damp cloth, then dry it fully. Let any wax cool before lifting it away to keep the ceramic clear.
Is it heavy enough to feel stable?
Yes, the ceramic gives it a reassuring weight, so it stays steady on flat surfaces with a candle in place.
