Hurricane Candle Holders




             When thinking of a nice centerpiece for any occasion, Hurricane Candle Holders will simply take you away. 

            Hurricane Candle Holders are a type of candle holder which is composed of a base, usually made from brass, and a chimney, usually made from glass. Its main purpose is to protect your candle from the wind and in this way, help prevent accidents. But these pieces can hold more than just candles. They can be multipurpose and hold flowers, candy or other hurricane fillers. Hurricane fillers serve as an added decoration to your candle holder and your candle as well. A typical feature of hurricane candle holders is that they may look like an hour glass, fluted at the top or somewhere in the middle. 

            You have several options to choose from when it comes to the size and the curvedness of the glass. Hurricane candle holders can be used with pillar candles, taper candles, even floating candles. Typically, the base and the chimney are attached and come as one piece. Later designs separated the base from the chimney. Modern hurricane candle holders can also have a variety of bases, from brass, wrought iron, even glass. They can have different heights and dimensions. But all of which gives off a traditional look and feel. 

            Hurricane candle holders are simply timeless. They make candle lighting elegant and give you easy design and decorating ideas.
