Using this Design House Stockholm Shell Votive is easy. Just place a standard - sized tea light candle inside the holder. You can put it on a flat surface like a table or a shelf to add a warm and cozy atmosphere to your room. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the holder regularly to keep its shiny appearance. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may damage the nickel or brass plate. Since it's a special order item, there are no cancellations or returns. But if you receive it damaged or with defects, contact us and we'll send you a replacement right away.
