Frequently Asked Questions

Which candles fit this holder?

It is made for standard tea lights, the same ones used during Diwali and everyday decor, and for small votive candles. Wax-filled tea lights in metal cups are the easiest to use and the cleanest to remove.

Can I buy several for one table?

Yes, and that is how they are most often used. A row of three or four along a dining table or console gives an even spread of candlelight, especially during Diwali and festive dinners.

Does the stone get hot when a candle is burning?

It warms up gently but stays safe on a table because soapstone handles heat well and releases it slowly. Place it on a flat, heat-safe surface, keep it away from curtains and dupattas, and never leave a flame unattended.

Can I use it for diyas during Diwali?

Yes. Tea lights sit neatly in it, and it makes a good alternative to loose diyas on a console, mandir shelf or rangoli setup since the stone contains the heat and catches any drip.

Will my piece look exactly like the photo?

Very close, but not identical. Every piece is carved and polished by hand from natural soapstone, so the shade, veining and depth of carving differ slightly from one piece to the next. These small differences are a mark of genuine handicraft, not a defect.

Handcrafted in India from natural soapstone. As every piece is carved and polished by hand, slight variations in shade, veining and carving detail are natural and make your piece one of a kind.
