Know before you buy
This holder is specifically designed for standard votive candles. For the best light refraction, we recommend using a clean-burning wax votive to ensure the flame stays clear and bright.
The signature asymmetrical cut of the crystal acts like a prism. It captures the flame and refracts it through the facets, creating a dynamic, shimmering pattern of light and shadow on your tabletop.
Yes, the Carat Votive has a solid, weighted base that provides excellent stability. Its 4.875-inch width ensures it sits securely on any flat surface.
To keep the crystal sparkling, hand wash it in warm, soapy water and dry it immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid using harsh abrasives or a dishwasher, as these can dull the finish over time.
Absolutely. Because of its high-quality crystal construction and unique, abstract shape, the Carat Votive functions beautifully as a sculptural object even when not in use.
