About this product

Amber glass in the light
  • The antique amber colour deepens near the edges, giving the glass a honeyed, shaded look.
  • The smooth pressed finish catches small reflections, so the holder glows gently when a candle is burning.
  • The rounded base feels soft and grounded, with a mushroom-like silhouette that sits comfortably between vintage and contemporary styling.
  • The transparent glass lets the candlelight show through, adding warmth without making the setting feel heavy.
  • Used on a dining table, it brings a low, golden pool of light around plates, linen and glassware.
A reversible candle holder

The form is designed for two candle styles: dinner candles and tealights. One side holds a slim candle upright for a more formal table setting; the other creates a lower glow for slower evenings, side tables or grouped arrangements.

Pressed glass, rounded and warm

Made from pressed glass, the holder has a smooth surface and a softly rounded profile. The amber tone is the main detail here, giving a simple object depth without pattern or ornament.

Lighting, styling and care

Place on a stable, heat-proof surface before lighting. For dinner candles, trim the wick to about 5 mm before use, keep the holder away from anything flammable, and never leave a burning candle unattended.

Why this shape works

Reversible candle holders are useful because they let one object shift between table height and low ambient light. A dinner candle gives a room structure, drawing the eye upward on a laid table or mantel. A tealight feels more intimate, suited to shelves, bedside corners or a bath edge when the room is already quiet. In amber glass, both uses lean warm and nostalgic, echoing the glow of old apothecary bottles and lamplight without feeling ornate.

Set and details

This is a set of 2 pressed-glass candle holders in antique amber. They are made in China and are designed for use with dinner candles or tealights.

A warm house gift

A thoughtful choice for someone who enjoys slow dinners, candlelit corners or changing a room with small details. The pair suits a new home, a host gift, or a winter table that needs a softer kind of light.

Common questions

Why does the amber colour look different in changing light?
Transparent coloured glass naturally shifts with its surroundings. It can look deeper near the rim and warmer when a candle is lit inside or above it.
Can I group them with other candle holders?
Yes. Their simple rounded shape works well beside clear glass, brass, ceramic or darker candle holders, especially when you vary the height of the candles.

    A small candle with a bit of Christmas meaning behind it

    I got these Bolsius red pillar candles specifically for Christmas Eve, to place one in the window as part of the Irish window candle tradition. It's a simple thing, but it adds a really nice, quiet atmosphere and makes the evening feel a bit more meaningful. The candles themselves are solid a nice deep red colour that

    Great value

    Great quality candles, these already have the holes at the base, making them easy to place on your holders, watch those sizes though! These were smaller than I wanted , but that was my measuring error, but I did actually need this size elsewhere, great value whichever you purchase though

    Last for ages

    Left one to burn, just out of sheer curiosity, and got 3 days and 2 nights out of one. Impressed. Expensive, but worth it. No dripping, spitting, or major smoking. On my repeat list .
