Grey Glass Votive Holder - Set of 2

Votives work in pairs. One on its own reads as an afterthought; two at either end of a table or a mantel give the arrangement a left and a right, and the light carries across the space between them. This is the pair, priced below two singles.

What you get

• 2 x Grey Glass Votive Holder - textured smoked grey glass set in a brass frame, sized for a standard tealight.

Why grey glass

Grey is the piece most people would not think to add. An all-gold table can go flat - every surface returning the same warm light with nothing to push against. Smoked grey glass cools one part of the arrangement and makes the gold look deliberate rather than merely matched. It is the reason our Kanchan and Gajgamini sets use grey rather than amber.

Using them

Standard tealights only - do not use pillar or taper candles, and never leave a lit candle unattended. Place them where the glass is not in reach of a sleeve or a curtain. The glass warms during use, so let them cool before moving.

Care

Wash the glass by hand in warm water and dry fully; do not put them in a dishwasher. Lift out any wax residue once it has set rather than scraping while warm. Wipe the brass frame with a soft dry cloth.
