More Vintage Items
Candle followers (aka candle burners and wax savers) are most often seen in churches on the altar candles. When properly fitted, such followers allow the candle to burn longer and more evenly, minimizing problems.
These candle followers hail from the 1930s and bear the US Patent Number 2017533-0.
These are made to fit candles that measure 1 inch in diameter. It is important to use the proper follower with the correct size candle.
Because these are vintage, we thought you would appreciate their lovely patina created only by time. We like them just this way. However, churches are usually sure to polish these for a glistening shine. To remove any accumulated wax from the follower, immerse it in warm water and wipe clean with a soft cloth. Use of abrasives may effect the finish of the followers.
We're showing two in the photograph for illustration only.

Originally designed to be a candle adornment, we prefer this to adorn our walls. There is loop on the back of this lovely piece that will wrap around a candle that is already in a candle holder or candelabra. But, we've used the same loop to hang this lovely angel on the wall.
Made of tin by traditional artisans, this is a very special piece, indeed. It measures 9-3/4 inches by over 5 inches.

Hand Hewn Marble Skull Candle Holder
More Candles & Candle Holders
More Day of the Dead Sundries
Traditional artisans in Mexico have created each of these unique candle holders. They are made of brownish-pink and white marble and measure about 3 inches high by about 2-1/4 inches wide and 2-7/8 inches from front to back.
Of course, each is different due to the hand made nature and work of the artisan. The actual piece of marble guides the skilled artisan into shaping the piece. Each is similar to the one pictured, and the marbling is of the same coloring.
It will hold a candle that measure 3/8 to 1/4 inch in bottom diameter.
Alternatively, you might want to use it as a little display vase for straw flowers or a single marigold.

Clasicos Mexican Matchbox
More Shrine Supplies
More Boxes (and Bags)
Measuring 2-5/8 by 1-3/4 inches, this old-fashioned matchbox is filled with tiny little blue-tipped matches. The box is about 3/8 inch deep. How perfect this is for making a little matchbox shrine.
The graphics may differ on the box. But, the best part is the self-tab on the inner box which makes it easy to pull out. We think this would be a great feature for a tiny travelling shrine that you might make of the matchbox.

Flower Skull Candle Holder with Birds
Traditional artisans in Izucar originally crafted these very special ceramic candle holders as votive offerings for prayer - usually in church or for personal shrines at home.

The candelabra is crafted for a standard taper, but traditional beeswax candles will be lovely in it as well. (You might have to shave or re-shape the candles a bit, depending on the type you use). We think it is quite attractive with no candle at all!

These wonderful little candles arrive 45 to an organza bag - beautifully tied with a silken ribbon. They are traditional Hanukkah size and will fit most menorahs. Each is 5 inches high and the bottom diameter is about 5/16 inch and tapers gracefully to the top.

They are of course, natural and clean and hypoallergenic. When burning, they create a delicate hint of a honey scent and fill the environment around them with negative ions.
