Know before you buy
Each Urban Forge Taper Holder is sold individually. This allows you to mix and match the five available heights to create a custom arrangement that fits your specific table or mantel.
These holders are designed to accommodate standard-sized taper candles. Because they are hand-forged, there may be slight variations in the opening, so you may need to gently twist the candle base or use a small amount of candle adhesive for a secure, upright fit.
To maintain the antiqued finish, simply wipe the holders with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can damage the protective coating and the hand-forged texture.
Yes, the iron construction provides a solid, weighted base that offers excellent stability. However, as with any candle holder, ensure they are placed on a level, heat-resistant surface away from drafts or flammable materials.
While the antiqued finish provides a layer of protection, iron is a natural material that can react to moisture. We recommend keeping these pieces in a climate-controlled indoor environment to preserve their appearance and prevent oxidation.
