This elegant set of three candleholders in a contemporary star-shaped design is perfect for holiday and other fine entertaining. Each candlestick has an angular base in the shape of a six-sided star that rises to meet another reversed six-sided star with dramatic flared pinnacles. Three graduating sizes--4-1/4, 5-1/4, and 6-1/2 inches--add depth to the presentation. Each candleholder is designed to hold a taper candle of about a 3/4-inch diameter. Because each candleholder is individually made of lead crystal, it is normal to find some variation in the size of the well opening for the candle. For continued enjoyment of these candlesticks, avoid burning candles within an inch of the top. This set of candleholders makes an impressive wedding or holiday gift. --Cristina Vaamonde
