Description
This butterfly candle holder carries the words 'Sisters always friends forever' across its body, set among sprays of multicoloured watercolour flowers. It is made of glass with a clean white finish, and one of its lower wings is shaped as a round cup that takes a single tealight, so the flame sits low and neat beside the lettering. A small bee hides among the blooms on one wing. It measures 13cm across one way and 10cm the other, and is just 3cm deep, a small, low piece that fits easily on a crowded shelf.
We see it as a gift for a sister, and the printed words say what so many of us feel but rarely put in a card. It makes a thoughtful Mother's Day gift for a sister who is also a mum, or a small present to mark the bond between two sisters at any time of year. At home it sits happily on a mantelpiece, a bedside table, a windowsill or a dressing table. Lit in the evening, the tealight gives a soft, low glow beside the lettering; unlit, the butterfly and its flowers still bring a cheerful touch to a living room, bedroom or hallway.
The holder is one smooth glass piece with a glossy surface and a flat base, so it rests steadily on a level surface with no stand needed. The floral design and the lettering are printed on. To look after it, dust it with a soft dry cloth and wipe it with a damp cloth when needed, letting it dry fully before you light a candle again. Keep the tealight in its own case, stand the holder away from curtains and anything that might catch, and never leave a burning candle unattended. For a sister's gift, add a fresh tealight and a handwritten note, and it is ready to give.
