Know before you buy
The holder is designed for standard taper candles. Because it is a decorative piece, we recommend using a dripless taper to maintain the integrity of the hand-painted finish.
Yes, as this is a hand-painted ceramic piece, it should be handled with care to avoid chipping. It is intended for indoor decorative use and should be cleaned only with a soft, dry cloth.
Absolutely. The giraffe’s sculptural shape is designed to be a statement object on its own, making it a perfect addition to a bookshelf, mantel, or console table even when not in use.
Yes, because each piece is meticulously hand-painted by artisans in Portugal, slight variations in the dot pattern and color application are expected. These nuances are part of the item's artisanal charm and ensure your piece is unique.
The base is crafted from sturdy earthenware, providing a stable foundation for the giraffe silhouette. However, as with any tall decorative object, it is best placed on a level surface away from high-traffic areas.
