Description
This set of four LED votive candles brings the soft look of candlelight to a room with no flame to watch over. Each candle is a neat cylinder 5cm across, finished in a muted pewter grey with a gently mottled, textured surface that gives it the character of a rustic church candle. At the top, a flame-shaped light rises from a slim dark wick, and when all four are lit together they make a calm, cosy little cluster of light. The four candles share the same quiet colour, so they sit happily side by side or spread out around a room.
Because they are battery operated, there is no cable to hide and no socket to find, so you can place them wherever the light is wanted: along a mantelpiece, on a bookcase shelf, at the centre of the dining table or on a bedside table. Grouped on a coffee table or set on an inside windowsill, they give a gentle glow through the long winter evenings, and we like them dotted along a shelf among books and greenery. With no flame, there is nothing to trim or snuff out, which makes them an easy choice for a room you use every day.
The candles have a built-in timer, which saves going round the room to switch them off at the end of the evening. The textured pewter grey finish is soft and understated, and it sits as comfortably beside warm wood and old books as it does with pale stone and neutral linen. To keep them looking their best, dust them now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep them dry. We find they look best in a loose group with a little space between each candle, perhaps on a tray with a few sprigs of greenery, or set out in pairs at either end of a mantelpiece.
