Description
This is a ready-made Christmas arrangement in six pieces: a round paulownia tray, a ribbed bottle vase in brown glass, a brown glass tealight holder, a ribbed glass candle holder, a glitter-coated star and a frosted pine-style sprig for the vase. Together they measure 18cm across and 22.5cm tall, so the whole group sits comfortably on a side table or a deep windowsill without crowding it. The set weighs 0.56KG. Paulownia is one of the lightest timbers there is, which keeps the tray easy to lift and move once it is dressed.
It is made for the Christmas table and the weeks leading up to it. Set it in the middle of a dining table, on a mantelpiece, a hall console or a sideboard, where the star and the warm brown glass catch the candlelight. One glass holder takes a tealight and the ribbed holder takes a dinner candle, so you get two kinds of glow from one small tray. It suits anyone who likes their decorations gathered in one place rather than spread across the room. Because the pieces come together, it makes an easy present for a friend who hosts at Christmas.
The vase and the candle holder have fine vertical ribs that catch the light, while the tealight holder is smooth glass. The tray has a low raised rim around its edge, and the grain of the paulownia shows across its surface. The star is coated in glitter and rests on its points, and the sprig sits in the narrow neck of the vase. The styling props shown are not included, so have tealights and a dinner candle ready. For a different look, swap the sprig for bare twigs or a few dried stems, and stand the tray on a stack of books so it sits a little higher than its neighbours.

Frequently Asked
What is included in the set?
There are six pieces: a round paulownia tray, a ribbed brown glass vase, a brown glass tealight holder, a ribbed glass candle holder, a glitter-coated star and a frosted pine-style sprig. The styling props shown, such as candles, are not included.
How big is it?
It is 18cm across and 22.5cm tall and weighs 0.56KG, so it fits a side table, a windowsill or the centre of a small dining table.
What is it made from?
The pieces are made from glass and paulownia. Paulownia is a light timber, and its grain shows across the surface of the round tray.
What candles does it take?
The brown glass holder takes a tealight, and the ribbed glass holder takes a dinner candle in its narrow top. You will need to buy both candles separately.
Can I use it after Christmas?
Yes. Put the star and the sprig away and the tray, vase and holders work as a simple candle arrangement for any time of year.
What can I put in the vase?
The narrow neck of the ribbed vase suits the sprig that comes with it, a few bare twigs, some dried stems or a single slender stem.
