These candle holders were made from the historic Cedar of Lebanon at Tyler Arboretum that was bought by the Painter brothers in 1859 and recently had to be removed in December of 2021 due to its declining health. Tyler’s staff graciously saved portions of the tree for us. These candle holders are approximately 2-2.25” tall x 3-3.25” in diameter. Each is unique with a beeswax tea light candle. Movement in the wood is considered normal. Cracks can sometimes occur in these holders as they age. Some of the bark on these holders is loose due to the wood’s age and is considered part of its charm.

Candle Care: Trim wick 1/4”. Burn within sight. Keep away from children, pets, flammable material, and drafts. Use with a tea light with a metal casing. Enjoy!
