Know before you buy
To prevent the glass from cracking due to excessive heat, we recommend placing a layer of sand or salt at the bottom of the vessel before inserting your candle.
The glass vessel should be hand-washed with mild soap and water. The cast iron stand should be wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its finish.
Yes, the mouth-blown glass vessel is designed to sit securely within the cast iron stand, allowing you to easily remove it for cleaning or to refill the sand base.
Given the 5-inch by 10-inch dimensions, this hurricane is best suited for pillar candles that allow for adequate airflow around the flame, ensuring the glass does not overheat.
Because Jan Barboglio pieces are handcrafted, the azure finish on the cast iron may exhibit slight variations in tone and texture, making each hurricane unique.
