Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use an LED candle instead of a real tea light?

Yes, LED tea lights are a safe and effective alternative, especially if you wish to leave the light on for extended periods.

What are the exact dimensions of this holder?

The item measures approximately 18cm x 8cm x 16cm.

Is this product heat-resistant?

Yes, it is crafted from pottery specifically designed to withstand the heat of a standard tea light.

Can this be used outdoors?

It is designed for indoor use. Outdoor conditions may cause the hand-painted finish to deteriorate or the piece to become unstable due to wind.

Are the windows made of glass?

No, the windows are cut-outs in the pottery, allowing the light to pass through directly.

How do I ensure safety when using candles?

Always place the holder on a non-flammable surface, keep it away from curtains or drapes, and never leave a burning candle unattended.

Troubleshooting

The candle light is not showing through the windows.

Ensure the candle is centered inside the building; if the flame is too low, use a slightly taller tea light.

Soot buildup on the interior walls.

Allow the pottery to cool completely, then gently wipe the interior with a soft, dry brush or cloth.

The unit feels unstable on the shelf.

Check that the surface is level; if not, add a small felt adhesive pad to the bottom of the piece to create a level base.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique hand-painted finish ensures no two pieces are identical
  • Sturdy construction suitable for standalone display or shelf arrangements
  • Large rear access point makes placing candles effortless
  • Charming aesthetic that fits both traditional and rustic home decor themes

Cons

  • Requires manual lighting of tea lights; not battery operated
  • Hand-finished nature means small variations in color may occur
  • Fragile material requires careful handling and placement
  • Not intended for use as a primary light source

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the holder is straightforward: simply place the unit on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface. Always ensure the back of the building faces away from high-traffic areas to allow easy access for lighting.

Compatibility: This holder is designed for standard-sized tea lights. It is recommended to use unscented candles to avoid residue build-up inside the pottery, though standard scented tea lights are compatible if cleaned regularly.

Care Instructions: Keep the ceramic clean by dusting with a soft, dry cloth. If soot builds up inside from candle use, wipe the interior carefully with a slightly damp cloth once the piece has fully cooled. Never submerge the unit in water or use harsh chemical cleaners, as this may damage the hand-painted finish.
