Cachuma I Gold Candle Holder

With a base width of 5 inches, this holder is ideally suited for standard 3-inch or 4-inch diameter pillar candles. Given its 18-inch height, a taller pillar candle (6 to 9 inches) creates a balanced, proportionate look that emphasizes the elegant vertical lines of the clear glass hurricane and the hammered gold base.

This item requires light customer assembly. This typically involves securely placing the mango wood insert onto the aluminum pillar base and positioning the glass hurricane. This modular design not only ensures the glass is protected during shipping but also makes it much easier to remove the hurricane for cleaning or when replacing your candle.

At 18 inches tall, this piece is a sophisticated "transitional" accent that provides significant vertical interest. While it makes a stunning centerpiece, its height is particularly effective for adding layers to a mantle, an entryway console, or a sideboard. In a dining setting, we suggest placing it as a singular statement piece or pairing it with lower accents to ensure clear sightlines for guests across the table.

While the aluminum base is naturally resistant to rust, this item is primarily designed for indoor use to protect the organic mango wood and the delicate gold finish. In coastal or humid climates, such as those often found in the Southeast or Florida, we recommend keeping this accent in a climate-controlled environment to prevent moisture from affecting the natural wood insert or causing the metallic finish to tarnish over time.

Yes, the design incorporates a smooth cut of mango wood specifically as a decorative base for your candle. Mango wood is a dense, durable hardwood that provides a stable surface. For the best experience and safety, we recommend using a high-quality pillar candle that fits centered within the glass hurricane to ensure the heat is properly contained and the flame is shielded from drafts.

To preserve the luster of the gold hammered finish, our care experts recommend dusting the aluminum base regularly with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. If deeper cleaning is needed, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and water, then dry immediately. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can strip the metallic finish and dull the unique organic texture of the hammered pattern.
