Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
Will the base of these holders protect my furniture from heat and scratches?
Yes. These candle holders feature an elegant white marble foot. Because marble is a natural stone with excellent thermal resistance, it acts as a sturdy, heat-dispersing barrier between the candle and your tabletop. Additionally, the weight of the marble provides a low center of gravity, which enhances stability on smooth surfaces like wood or glass.
How should I clean the brass and marble finishes to prevent damage?
To maintain the antique brushed brass finish and the natural luster of the marble, we recommend dusting the pieces regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes, as these can strip the protective finish from the brass or etch the surface of the marble. If wax drips onto the holder, wait for it to harden completely before gently popping it off with a plastic edge to avoid scratching the metal.
How stable are these holders if used in high-traffic areas like a dining table?
These holders are engineered for stability. The combination of the metal stem and the solid marble base ensures they are significantly heavier and more secure than standard lightweight metal or plastic alternatives. This makes them a safer choice for active households, as they are less likely to tip over if the table is bumped during a meal or social gathering.
What size candles are recommended for this candle holder set?
This set of two candle holders is specifically designed to accommodate pillar candles. For your convenience, two 4x3-inch off-white distressed candles are included with the set. If you choose to replace them, we recommend sticking with a 3-inch diameter pillar candle to ensure a proper fit within the top of the holder.
Is this set of candle holders suitable for a small apartment or a crowded mantel?
These candle holders are an excellent choice for smaller living spaces or narrow fireplace mantels. With a footprint of just 4.75 to 5 inches square and heights reaching up to 13 inches, they provide significant vertical visual interest without occupying much surface area. Their slender, contemporary profile allows them to add a touch of luxury to a compact entryway console or a dining buffet without making the space feel cluttered.
Can I style these candle holders separately, or should they be kept as a pair?
While they are designed as a tiered set (one at 10 inches and one at 13 inches tall), they offer great versatility. In a contemporary dining room, you might style them together to create a staggered centerpiece. Alternatively, you can use them to create symmetry by placing one at each end of a long sideboard or buffet. Our styling experts often recommend grouping decorative accents in varying heights to create a more dynamic and curated look.
