They are not identical: one column carries a herringbone leaf pattern, the other a scrolling floral one, so the pair reads as two related pieces rather than a mirror image.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo candle holders, one of each pattern. 856 g for the pair, 12 inches tall, 4.75 inches across the base.

The price is for the pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre they the same design?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, and it is intentional. One column is herringbone, the other floral. If you were expecting a matched pair, this is worth knowing before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTealights or pillar candles?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEither. The top is a wide dish, so a tealight sits in it and a pillar stands on it. A taper would need a separate insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill wax damage the finish?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, but let it set and lift it off cold rather than scraping at it warm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this German silver?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot literally, and we would rather say so plainly. German silver — also sold as nickel silver — is a copper, nickel and zinc alloy that contains no silver in it at all. This piece is brass, nickel-plated and then oxidised so the darkening settles into the recesses of the engraving. A lot of this category gets sold as German silver regardless of what is actually underneath, so it is worth knowing which you are buying.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow tall is 12 inches on a table?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the height of a wine bottle, so the flame sits just above eye level for someone seated. It will not block conversation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWipe with a soft dry cloth. Do not put it in the dishwasher and do not use abrasive scourers or acidic cleaners — they will cut through the plating. Between uses, store it in a sealed plastic bag; that slows tarnishing more than anything else you can do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it tarnish?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSilver plating darkens over time, and the antique finish is designed to sit in the recesses and deepen the pattern as it does. That is the intended look. If you want it brighter, a light buff with a dry cloth on the raised areas will lift it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I order several for an event?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — get in touch before you order if you need more than a few.
