Votive Candle Holders

Votive candle holders in colored crystal glass, hand-painted animal sculptures with candle sockets, and statement candelabra—this collection brings together pieces that read as gallery art, whether lit or not. Start with the 5-flame crystal candelabra in purple glass, move through turquoise, red, and magenta crystal pieces, and finish with hand-painted deer, parrot, and elephant figures that hold a single taper at their crown.

Choosing Votive and Crystal Glass Candle Holders

Votive candle holders work through the quality of their glass and the depth of their color. Look for glass that shows shifting facets of the same hue as the flame moves, rather than one flat tone throughout. The Fancy Crystal Glass pieces come in turquoise, magenta, red, and green, with variants from a small tealight-sized piece to a large round globe. The green crystal glass holder, like all colorways in this line, comes in two sizes—place a set of three together for compound light and color.

Animal Sculpture Candle Holders

The animal sculpture candle holders work as decorative objects first and candle holders second. A hand-painted deer candle holder, a parrot, an elephant, and a tiger—each is shaped and painted to sit on a console or shelf as art, with the candle fitting a socket at the top. The Deer Erika candle holder is a good example: a matte-painted deer figure with a single candle socket at the crown. Unlit, it reads as a decorative object; lit, the flame animates the painted surface and throws warm light.

Styling Candle Holders at Home

Group three or four crystal votive candle holders on a dining table or windowsill to create an ambient cluster of colored light that shifts across the surface. A single sculptural animal candleholder—the parrot in gold, the zebra, or the heron—holds a corner alone and earns its place between objects. For a layered shelf arrangement, stand one sculpture beside a piece of wall art and two or three smaller votive holders in front; the mix of scales and materials creates a composed vignette without looking curated.

Votive Candle Holders FAQs

What types of candle holders are in this collection?

Two types: colorful, fancy crystal glass votive holders ($34–$314) and hand-painted animal sculptures—from a parrot in green and gold to deer, tiger, and elephant figures. Crystal glass pieces hold tealights and votives; animal sculptures hold taper or tealight candles in a socket at the top. Both are chosen as art objects first.

Which candle size fits these holders?

It depends on the type. Crystal glass pieces suit tealights or votives; each product page specifies the opening size. The elephant hand-painted candleholder and other animal sculpture pieces typically hold a standard taper or tealight in a socket at the crown. Check the candle diameter against the holder opening on each product page before ordering.

How do I clean these candle holders?

For crystal glass pieces, wipe with a soft dry cloth once wax has cooled—avoid abrasive cloths that scratch glass. For hand-painted animal sculptures, use a barely damp cloth; never submerge or soak the painted surface. Neither type should go in a dishwasher.

Do these ship internationally with no extra fees?

Yes. Every order ships free worldwide with duties and taxes paid, delivered by DHL, FedEx, or UPS. There are no customs charges or hidden import fees — the amount at checkout is the full amount you pay.
