Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Glass chimneys, also known as hurricane shades, were introduced in the late eighteenth century to shield candle flames from air currents and draughts. This design prevented candles from blowing out or burning unevenly, making them ideal for both outdoor use and ventilated interior rooms.

Traditional hurricane candlesticks are constructed using cast or spun brass for the base and column, combined with hand-blown or moulded clear glass for the protective chimneys. The brass gallery rim holds the glass securely in place above the candle candleholder.

Authentic pieces often exhibit signs of historical manufacture, such as visible seams or hand-turned joint lines on the brass, along with subtle air bubbles or irregularities in the glass. Natural oxidisation, surface patination, and weighted bases are also indicators of traditional construction.

These lighting pieces can be styled as a symmetrical pair on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or long dining table. Combining brass elements with natural wood textures or modern ceramics creates balanced visual contrast within modern spaces.

Glass chimneys should be removed and washed gently using warm soapy water and a soft cloth to remove soot residue. The brass components should be regularly dusted and cleaned with non-abrasive polishes to preserve the surface finish without stripping natural patination.
