FAQs
What are the dimensions of the holder?
Specific dimensions are not provided in the product information, but it is designed to hold standard dinner candles and tealights.
Can I use this holder outdoors?
While the holder can be used outdoors, it is best suited for indoor use to protect it from the elements and ensure longevity. Extreme weather conditions may damage the material.
How do I clean wax residue?
Once the holder has cooled completely, you can gently scrape off excess wax. For remaining residue, place the holder in the freezer for a short period; the wax will often harden and become easier to peel off. Alternatively, use a soft cloth dampened with warm water.
Is the antique amber color consistent?
Due to the nature of glass production and the antique finish, slight variations in color and texture may occur, adding to its unique charm.
Can I use pillar candles with this holder?
This holder is specifically designed for the bases of dinner candles and the cups of tealights. It is not suitable for wider pillar candles.
What is the warranty period?
Warranty information is not provided in the product details.
Troubleshooting
Candle is unstable
For dinner candles, ensure the base is fully inserted. If still wobbly, use a small amount of reusable putty to secure it. For tealights, ensure they are placed level within their cup.
Holder appears smudged or dull
Gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse with a clean damp cloth, then dry thoroughly.
Holder feels warm after use
This is normal due to proximity to the flame. Allow the holder to cool down completely before handling or cleaning.
