FAQs
What are the dimensions of the tea light holder?
The Village Pottery Mini Heart Cottage Tea Light Holder measures approximately 10cm in height, 10.5cm in width, and 7cm in depth.
Can I use an LED tealight instead of a real candle?
Yes, LED tealights are a safe and suitable alternative to real candles and will still allow the light to glow through the heart window.
Is this product suitable for outdoor use?
This item is designed for indoor decorative use. Exposure to the elements may damage the ceramic and hand-painted finish.
How should I clean the tea light holder?
Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive materials to preserve the hand-painted finish.
Does it come with a candle or tea light?
No, the tea light holder is sold separately and does not include a candle or tea light. These need to be purchased additionally.
What material is it made from?
The tea light holder is crafted from ceramic.
Is the grey colour consistent across all units?
As each item is hand-painted, there may be slight variations in the shade and finish, contributing to its unique character.
Troubleshooting
Holder appears uneven or slightly wobbly.
This is a characteristic of the hand-painted, artisanal finish. Ensure it's placed on a level surface; minor wobbling does not affect its functionality.
Candle doesn't fit properly.
Ensure you are using a standard-sized tea light or a candle with a similar base diameter. Check for any debris inside the holder.
Surface discolouration after use.
This can occur with open flames. Ensure proper ventilation and use a drip tray if concerned about wax residue. Clean gently with a damp cloth once cooled.
