These candle holders lean decorative first — Triple Goddess figures, pentagram and moon-phase designs, and figural pieces in a cast resin finish that reads like stone or aged metal. Sizes and fittings vary, so most are made for a specific candle type: taper, votive or tea light. A handful of metal and aluminium pieces cross over from our incense burner range and double as candle holders too.
Benefits of a Themed Candle Holder
A cast holder protects the surface underneath from wax drips and heat, and unlike a plain glass or metal holder, these are detailed enough to stand on a shelf as decor even when nothing is lit. They also make an easy themed gift — a goddess or pentagram design says more than a plain candle on its own.
How to Choose a Candle Holder
Match the fitting to the candles you already have — taper, votive and tea light holders are sized differently, and the product page states which one a design is built for. Resin castings capture detail beautifully but are not heatproof at the surface, so always use a saucer, dish or tray underneath rather than resting a candle directly on the finished base. If you want a holder that can also take direct heat from incense charcoal, look at our metal and aluminium options instead of the resin pieces.
Popular Types
Goddess and Figural Holders
Triple Goddess, Mother-Maiden-Crone and other figurative designs, mostly sized for taper or votive candles. These pair naturally with a spiritual altar setup.
Pentagram and Moon Holders
Pentacle and moon-phase designs, single and in pairs. For candles sized to fit them, see our 7 day candles and votive ranges.
Using and Caring for These Holders
Let wax drips cool and harden before lifting them off with a fingernail or plastic scraper rather than a knife, which can scratch the finish. Wipe with a soft, barely damp cloth and avoid solvents on painted or metallic pieces. Always burn candles on a heatproof saucer or tray, never leave a lit candle unattended, keep it away from curtains and other flammable material, and keep out of reach of children and pets.
