FAQs
What size tealight candles fit this holder?
This holder is designed for standard tealight candles, typically measuring around 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) in diameter.
Can this holder be used outdoors?
While durable, the cement and whitewashed finish are best protected from harsh weather. It can be used on a sheltered patio but should not be left exposed to rain or extreme temperatures.
Is the whitewashed finish prone to scratching?
The finish can be susceptible to scratching. Handle with care and avoid placing abrasive objects near or on it.
How do I clean soot marks from the inside?
Once the holder is cool, use a soft cloth lightly dampened with water and a mild soap. Wipe gently and dry thoroughly. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be used cautiously, but test on a small area first.
Does the holder come with a candle?
No, the tealight candle is not included with the holder.
What is the material of the holder?
The holder is crafted from cement.
Troubleshooting
Holder feels unstable
Ensure the holder is placed on a flat, level surface. The cement base is designed for stability on even ground.
Whitewashed finish is damaged
Avoid using abrasive cleaners. For minor scuffs, a very light touch-up with white paint might be considered, but test in an inconspicuous area first. For significant damage, replacement may be necessary.
Wax residue is difficult to remove
Gently warm the area with a hairdryer on a low setting to soften the wax, then carefully wipe away with a cloth. Alternatively, freeze the holder briefly to make the wax brittle and easier to chip off.
