Description
This Christmas candle holder sets a speckled metallic candle cup in a full ring of festive trimmings on a rustic round board. Around the cup sit burgundy pine cones tipped with gold glitter, deep red flowers, gold berries on fine stems, sprigs of green pine and a sage-green leaf brushed with gold. The cup is gold-toned and flecked on the outside and silver within, so it catches the candlelight with a soft, scattered shimmer. The board is a natural brown with a rugged, bark-like edge for a homely woodland feel. It stands 11.8cm tall, low enough to sit in the middle of a table without blocking anyone's view across it.
It makes a warm centrepiece for the Christmas dinner table, and it sits just as happily on a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a hall table or a deep windowsill through the festive weeks. Because the trimmings run all the way round, it looks full from every side, so it suits a round table where guests sit on all sides as well as a shelf seen from the front. It also makes a thoughtful Christmas gift for a home that loves a traditional, rustic look.
The trimmings are gathered closely around the base of the cup, and the board gives the whole arrangement a broad, flat base to stand on. To keep it looking its best, lift dust from the cones, flowers and greenery with a soft dry brush, and wipe the cup with a soft dry cloth. Once the festivities are over, store it somewhere dry so the glitter and leaves stay fresh for the following Christmas. As with any candle, never leave it burning unattended, and keep the flame well clear of the foliage around the cup. For a finishing touch, set it on a table runner with sprigs of greenery, and choose a burgundy or ivory candle to pick up its colours.
