Gigante Pillar Candlestick - 15 cm Height - Handcrafted in Italy - Pewter
This lovely modestly sized pewter candle holder, ironically named, is a faithful replica of an ancient Florentine candleholder, handcrafted in the Renaissance style. Its perfect proportions subsequently gave rise to our largest candlesticks aptly named the "GIGANTE"s.

The defining character of the pillar candle is its simplicity, wide enough to be free-standing, and its simple design – tall and straight – a reflection, perhaps, of its association with religious faith, where the candle was a symbol of dispelling the darkness of night, and an everlasting dawn pervading the Universe.
Pillar candles are a popular choice of candle in the home today; the allure of the dancing flames and aromas from modern, scented pillar candles, and their longevity, where they can be burned for an extended period of time, ideal in the event of power outage or simply for the special ambience this form of natural lighting creates, makes the pillar candles a sought-after choice of lighting and a delightful reminder of its simple origins.
The charm of the small Gigante Pillar Candlestick is its elegant form; its wide holder to seat and stabilize a tall candle and to catch any wax, therefore, highly practical, exudes a stylish yet age-old ambience to any home, looking great standing alone, as matching pairs or when complementing the other large Gigante pillar candlesticks.
