Description
Tom is a hurricane candle holder in black powder-coated steel with a clear glass cylinder, handmade in Sweden for tabletops, windowsills and shelves. It comes in three sizes, Small at 17 cm, Medium at 20,5 cm and Large at 24 cm in length, all 10,5 cm across, and takes pillar candles up to 9 cm in diameter and 11 cm tall.
The glass cylinder shields the flame from draughts and keeps the candlelight steady, so Tom can sit by an open window or on a dinner table where a bare flame would flicker. One size works as a quiet point of light, and two or three lined up along a table or a windowsill build the stepped row the sets are known for. The matte black steel frames the glow without stealing it.
Like every by Crea original, Tom is designed by Alexandra Pettersson, welded from raw Swedish steel and powder-coated in our own factory in Malmö. The warranty runs ten years, and repair beats replacement here, with the glass cylinder available separately as a spare part. Candles are not included; full dimensions are in the dropdown below.

Pillar candles up to 9 cm in diameter and 11 cm tall. The clear glass cylinder is removable, keeps the candle in place and shields the flame from draughts. Candles are not included.
Tom is designed for indoor use. The powder-coated steel frame and glass cylinder are made for residential rooms rather than weather exposure.
