Decorative Steel "Viking Drakkar" Candle Holder
Atmosphere of Norse Legends
This candle holder is made from cast steel, and its surface is treated with a black lacquer that gives it a wrought-iron look. The design is elegantly stylized, with a slender hull and the characteristic high-swept bow and stern that evoke the famous Viking longships. Two sturdy feet ensure the candle holder stands stably and securely.
How to Use the Candle Holder
Using it is very simple. Place the candle holder on a flat, stable, and non-flammable surface. Inside the hull, there are two integrated metal spikes. Simply take two standard candles and carefully press them onto these spikes. This secures them from falling over. Then, just light the candles and enjoy the atmosphere.
Important SafetyWarning: Never leave burning candles unattended. Keep the candle holder away from flammable materials, children, and pets.
The Ship as a Symbol
For the Vikings, the ship was not just a means of transport for trade and war; it was a central element of their culture, a symbol of power, wealth, and exploration. The most famous ships, "drakkars," were warships adorned with dragon heads intended to frighten enemies and protect the crew from evil spirits. Ships were also key in burial rituals. Many important chieftains and queens were buried in their ships (so-called ship burials, like the famous Oseberg find), which were meant to transport them safely to the afterlife. This candle holder thus evokes not only raids, but also the deep Norse mythology.

Care Instructions
- Clean the candle holder with a dry or slightly damp cloth only. Do not use abrasive cleaners that could damage the lacquer.
- How to remove wax: Never remove dried wax with a sharp object (e.g., a knife), as you could scratch the surface. Instead, either gently heat the wax (e.g., with a hairdryer on a low setting) and wipe it off with a cloth, or place the candle holder in the freezer for a while – the frozen wax will become brittle and can be easily flaked off.
