Know before you buy
The Dotbird is designed as a decorative ironwork sculpture. It does not feature specific candle cups or prongs, so it is best used as a standalone artistic piece or paired with flameless LED candles for ambient lighting.
The holder is crafted from durable painted iron with an antiqued finish. Because it is intended for indoor use only, it will remain in excellent condition as long as it is kept away from moisture and direct outdoor elements.
The Dotbird is designed for tabletop placement with a balanced, wide base measuring 30 cm in width. Its solid iron construction provides sufficient weight to ensure it remains stable on flat surfaces like dining tables, mantels, or consoles.
To preserve the finish, simply dust the piece periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can damage the painted, antiqued surface.
Yes, the abstract bird silhouette is designed to be visually appealing from both sides. This makes it a versatile piece for placement on open shelving or as a centerpiece on a dining table where it can be viewed from multiple angles.
