FAQs
What material is the Magis Officina High Candlestick made from?
It is made from forged iron with a smooth iron finish.
Is the black finish painted on?
The product description indicates a 'smooth iron finish' and a 'forged iron structure,' suggesting the color is inherent to the material treatment rather than a separate paint layer.
How should I clean the candlestick?
Clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For wax, use a hairdryer on low heat and wipe away residue with a soft cloth.
Will the imperfections on the iron affect its durability?
The slight imperfections are characteristic of the forging technique and do not typically affect the durability of the iron. They contribute to the unique aesthetic of each piece.
Can this candlestick be used outdoors?
It is not specifically recommended for outdoor use, as prolonged exposure to moisture could affect the iron finish. It is best suited for indoor environments.
What is the inspiration behind the Officina collection?
The Officina collection is inspired by the blacksmith's workshop and utilizes traditional metalworking techniques, particularly forging.
Does it come with candles?
No, the candlestick is sold separately from candles. You will need to provide your own taper candles.
Troubleshooting
Candlestick is wobbly
Ensure the surface it is placed on is perfectly level. Check that the base is clean and free from any obstructions.
Difficulty fitting a candle
Gently twist the candle as you insert it. If the holder feels too tight, the candle may be slightly too wide; consider using a different candle or very carefully trimming the base of the candle.
Foreign material on the iron finish
Use a soft, dry cloth for light dust. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid scrubbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Place the candlestick on a stable, level surface. Ensure the base is free from dust or debris before placement.
Compatibility: This candlestick is designed to hold standard taper candles. Ensure the candle fits snugly into the holder without being forced.
Care: To clean, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to wipe away dust. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the iron finish. If wax residue accumulates, it can often be carefully removed by gently warming the residue with a hairdryer on a low setting and wiping it away with a soft cloth. Due to the unique nature of the forged iron, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to prevent potential rusting.
