A very lovely Votive Candle holder that looks beautiful even without a candle burning inside!
I do have a suggestion for those buying this item-use a candle that has a metal base. Otherwise the melted wax may be difficult to remove and since this Murano piece is a bit more delicate, the risk of breakage while cleaning, could be an issue.

Murano Glass figurines and ornaments handmade over a small flame create a fairy-tale atmosphere of Old Europe during the holidays or any time of the year. Starting from a cane held under a small flame and blowing gently to create a hollow ball, the master uses ornamental features like pieces of Millefiori mosaics, gold and silver foil, and creative mixing of colors and techniques to craft beautiful Murano Glass figurines and ornaments. These beautiful Murano Glass objects are made one-at-a-time in a traditional Murano Glass workshop using ancient glass-making methods and very basic tools.
