Know before you buy
This holder is specifically sized for standard votive candles. We recommend using a glass votive cup inside to protect the raffia material from direct heat and wax drippings.
No, this piece is intended for indoor use only. Because it is crafted from natural raffia, exposure to moisture or direct sunlight may cause the material to degrade or discolor over time.
Because each piece is handmade in Colombia using natural raffia, there will be slight variations in color, texture, and shape. These unique characteristics are a hallmark of the artisanal process and ensure that no two holders are identical.
To maintain the holder, gently dust it with a soft, dry cloth or a soft-bristled brush. Avoid using water or chemical cleaners, as these can damage the natural fibers.
Yes, it is designed specifically for tabletop placement. Its construction provides a stable base for a votive candle, though you should always place it on a level, heat-resistant surface.
