Description
This single stem candle holder sets a clear glass flower on a slender gold stem, with two openwork gold leaves and a small gold blossom curling around its base. The glass petals open out like a cupped bloom, and at their centre sits a gold cup for a tea light, so the flame glows through the clear glass once it is lit. The leaves are cut through with a lacy pattern of veins and gaps that lets light and shadow fall across the surface beneath. It stands 17.9cm tall, 19cm wide and 12.9cm deep, a compact size that suits a small side table or shelf as readily as a long dining table. Gold and clear throughout, it sits happily alongside brass, glass and warm neutral colours.
We like it on a dining table, where the low flame sits beneath eye level and leaves room for conversation across the table. It works just as well on a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a hallway console or a deep windowsill well away from curtains, and the sweeping stem gives it a natural, growing look from every side. In a living room or bedroom it adds a gentle point of light on a quiet evening, and it stands on its own curved stems, so there is no base plate to find space for.
The flower is clear glass, shaped into broad, smooth petals that catch the light, while the stem, leaves and blossom carry a gold finish. To keep it looking its best, wipe the glass with a soft damp cloth and dust the gold parts with a soft dry cloth, avoiding anything abrasive. Let the tea light burn out and cool fully before you lift it from the cup, and never leave a burning candle unattended. For a dinner, ring it with greenery; on a bedside table or a shelf, let it stand alone, where its single stem shows off its curve.
