Candlestick, Candlestick Plumeria Leaf

Beautiful, elegant candle holder made of pewter (pewter) for four candles. This not only looks very impressive, but also spreads a very own, natural atmosphere due to its shape. The basis is formed by leaves that were modeled on the plumeria plant. The coloured, attached blossoms give the whole thing a warmer, more natural appearance. The candlestick can be fitted with either four whip candles or four tealights (not included). Each candlestick is a masterpiece and unique at the same time. Since it is an alloy of tin (lead-free and therefore suitable for food) and silver, the material runs does not stick and retains its impressively shiny surface. The craftsmanship that is necessary for the production of this exclusive object is passed on from generation to generation within the families. Size: W33xD28xH15cm Since the mechanical strength of tin is too low for everyday objects, it has to be alloyed. A bright, lustrous metal, pewter is soft enough to be easily machined. The low melting point makes it an ideal material for metal casting. Pewter was a widespread material for eating and drinking vessels from the Middle Ages to the 18th and 19th centuries, but it was largely replaced in this function by porcelain, glass and other materials. The main application of these alloys today, in addition to special applications, is the production of costume jewelry and ornaments. The pewter we use consists of 90% tin, antimony, copper and 10% silver. The products do not contain lead and are therefore harmless to health. For this reason, food can also come into direct contact with the products. Care 1. Pewter retains its lustrous finish with a minimum of maintenance 2. Although the surface may slightly darken due to oxidation, it does not tarnish like silver or copper 3. If necessary, it is advisable to occasionally clean the surface with mild soapy water and a soft sponge and then dry it with a soft cloth. Never clean in the dishwasher as damage could occur. 4. If the surface appears dull, a metal polish is recommended to restore the natural shine 5. Pewter products must never be exposed to excessive heat (stove, oven, etc.) or microwave radiation, as this can damage (deform) or even destroy them. Also for food products • do not heat or microwave • do not put in the dishwasher • do not place on a hot stove or in a hot oven
