Hurricane Candle Holder - Open Ended Glass, Bottomless Cylindrical Glass, 2.5" x 4" (Multiple Specifications)

Bought to replace a broken candle holder. Works perfectly.

I have had a beautiful candle holder set most of my life. It’s solid brass with a fluted crystal shade unlike any I have ever seen. And that’s where the story gets interesting.The set is on display on my mantle all year with LED tapers but assumes a special role around the holidays when it is dressed with a custom garland and real wax candles. Unfortunately one of the shades was crushed during a recent move. And to circle back to how unique that delicate shade was I have not been able to find anything even similar to replace it.After a lot of searching I found this one. Sure it’s only plain glass, not the hand blown fluted crystal of my original, but it’s the same size and once the garland is draped over it our holiday tradition can continue once again.I can’t say much about the quality, after all it’s only a clear piece of glass, but I can offer my opinion about the price. Mailing a thin glass lamp shade is risky and there must be a lot of them that don’t survive. A lot of effort goes in to protecting these and there is a real cost to that, by the way these are protected very simply in a custom box that had a molded insert shaped to protect the product. I’m not sure what the concern some others may have about all that but mine were delivered the next business day for free, not from China but from the Amazon warehouse a few miles away. I can’t see how that deserves a negative review.Overall I am happy with the product, it is as they say it is. You need to know that the diameter of the flutes is measured to the outside of the glass and it it as exact as it could be. If you are working with a lamp with very tight tolerances please keep this in mind. I recommend this product with the wish that it was about 25% cheaper.

Very well packaged for a fragile item. It arrived 4 days early and was exactly the item we wanted to fix our candle holder.

Love it!

I broke my hurricane lamp glass! Wasn't easy finding the right size but it works perfectly

The glass lamp was of good quality, but didn't fit my candle holder. I returned it and may try the next size.

Looked for something the right size, the right shape, and sturdy to place a solar powered vigil candle into as a respectful grave marker. Tried a large number and for varying reasons none was right......this hurricane candle holder protector is heavy enough and tough enough to do the job. My only adaption needed was a heavy layer of cellophane across the top to keep water out.

Replacement looked as perfect as the originals.
