There is nothing like the power of candlelight — it creates an ambiance unmatched by any other light source (with all due respect to the moon). Match Italian pewter candlesticks, hurricanes and sconces gently amplify the warm reflections of a flickering flame. Gigante Pillar Candlestick - 19" HGigante Pillar Candlestick with Attachment - 23" H Match was founded by RISD graduate David Reiss in 1995. He collaborates closely with Italian artisans to produce designs in classic European forms from the 14th through 19th centuries; many are cast from molds made from original antiques. Pewter has an odd warmth in appearance that allows it to seamlessly meld with traditional and modern table settings alike. Each piece is made with a lead free alloy of tin, copper and antimony that is FDA approved and food safe. Do not soak. Hand washing suggested. Wipe insert with damp cloth. To clean your pewter hand wash in warm water with a liquid dish soap. Be sure to dry the pewter completely, as water allowed to dry on pewter may cause spots. Any spots that appear can be easily removed by polishing or by gently rubbing the area in small circular motions with very fine "0000" steel wool. The Match Pewter Candlesticks and Snuffers collection is available here.
