Pfaltzgraff Winterberry Hand-Painted Footed Hurricane Candle Holder with Candle

I stumbled across this candle holder because of a promotion that Amazon was offering. It wasn't something that I had originally added to my "wish list," but after receiving it I know would have been missing out. The piece is beautiful! It is actually larger than I anticipated it being. The glass is etched and hand-painted with the Winterberry patten, and the footing on the holder is a deep ruby red to match. The two glasses compliment each other nicely, and really play up the Christmas colors that are used in the Winterberry pattern. In fact, the colors that are represented in this piece could be incorporated into almost any Christmas decorating scheme. Pfaltzgraff includes a candle with this item, so there's no guessing on which size or type of candle to buy. The piece has a good weight to it, of course it's fragile, but it doesn't feel that way.

These match my Winterberry pattern perfectly, but needs to be lightly handwashed to keep the paint from flaking off.
