I bought these iron candle holders to use inside of my iron and glass sconces, instead of using pillar candles; If I wanted, I could also use them on my dining room table.Exactly fits the description. I like them very much.Opened the box and thought how nice these will look on my fireplace,that was until I put a candle in the holder, it fell out as the holder is too shallow, not even 1cm deep and the width bigger than your standard taper candle, it would hold if I melted the base of candle to set into hole, but still dangerous as candle could fall out.Beautiful design but not safe to hold a candle in.While these candle holders do the job, I think they’re overpriced.Looks good, well made and understated. Quick delivery.Not worth the money. Mine are dull and scratched, not the look I wanted.
