Know before you buy
The cup is designed for smaller candles or tea lights. A standard taper candle may be too wide or unstable, so we recommend measuring your candle base against the cup opening before use.
This piece is crafted from chalk white stoneware. Because it is handmade vintage pottery, the finish is generally unglazed or matte, meaning it may absorb moisture if used as a planter.
No, this piece does not feature a drainage hole. If you use it for live plants, we recommend keeping the plant in a small plastic nursery liner or using it for air plants that do not require soil.
Because of the delicate, matte nature of the stoneware, it is best to dust the piece with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or submerging it in water to preserve the vintage texture.
Yes, the angel is designed with a balanced base. However, because it is 10 inches tall, it is best suited for lightweight air plants or small succulents rather than top-heavy or trailing plants.
