Tealight holders - From £10.99
These simple rustic tealight holders are from our reclaimed hops pole collection.
Each holder is hand crafted and is available in 1, 2, and 3 tealight configurations and are sold separately but can also be grouped together to make an interesting display.
The holders are 7cm deep 4cm tall and are 9cm, 13.5cm and 19cm wide respectively and will accept tealights up to 4cm diameter (please note all dimensions are approximate).
The tealight holders are finished with a natural oil to bring out the wood grain and other features unique to the material that it is made from and may include splits, 'U' nail/staple holes from the wires used to support the hops!
We would recommend that led/artificial tealights are used, as these are made from real wood, and may create a real bonfire, if used with a real flame!...You have been warned!
Please note, the photo is of a typical example and will not be identical to the one you receive, as due to the nature of the material used each piece is completely unique.
Free Tealight candles included.
Important Notes
As the wood we use has been very well weathered (they were stuck in a field at one time after all) you can get a wide variety of colours. From the natural wood tones, to greys from the ‘silvered’ weathered wood, to black from the reaction of the wood with steel fasteners and even a hint of green may remain from the tanalising used to help protect the wood from rot.
You will also see splits in the wood from weathering, and often evidence of various fasteners that were used to hold the wires and mesh to support the hops.
These all add to the interest of the piece, and we try to include these features and colour variations where possible.
If you just want a bland piece of ‘perfect’ wood furniture then these are not for you. If on the other hand you want something that tells a story, a talking point even, then these are definitely worth your consideration.
It's worth remembering that wood will continue to move even after its been turned into a piece of furniture. Warm dry rooms may cause the wood to shrink slightly and cause cracks to enlarge or appear. Conversely cold damp environments can cause the wood to swell.
Direct sunlight might also cause the timber to change colour.
