Description
Tom is a hurricane candle holder in taupe 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 tall, 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 warm taupe steel settles into the room and lets the glow lead.
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.
“Tom is Thomas brought down to the table. The glass does the practical work of calming the flame, so the steel can stay as thin as I want it.”

Care & Maintenance
Frame
Wipe with a microfiber cloth, lukewarm water and a normal cleaning agent. Refrain from using too acidic solutions as this will fade out the outer protection of the powder-coat.
Delivery, Returns & Assembly
Shipping
Shipping is calculated at checkout from your delivery address and the size of your order, so you see the exact cost before you pay. A tracking link reaches you by email the moment your order leaves our factory in Malmö, Sweden.
Delivery time
Orders across Europe are delivered by UPS, normally 3 to 5 working days after dispatch. Made to order pieces are produced first, and that production time is shown on this page.
Assembly
Most of our furniture arrives fully assembled. Dining tables and some outdoor pieces arrive with the top and legs packed separately, and fitting them takes 5 to 10 minutes and one screwdriver.
Returns
You have 14 days from delivery to request a return, provided the piece is unused and in its original condition. Email info@by-crea.com or open the chat and we will arrange it. Return shipping is paid by you at the carrier's actual rate, typically 15 to 20% of the order value, or roughly 30 to 90 EUR per package depending on size and destination. We confirm the exact amount in your own currency before anything is collected.
Custom orders
Anything configured through Design Your Own, with custom dimensions, finishes or materials, is produced specifically for your order and is not eligible for return. Order free samples first, or ask us in the chat, and we will help you get it right the first time.
FAQ
Three heights: Small at 17 cm, Medium at 20,5 cm and Large at 24 cm, all 10,5 cm across. Pick the size on this page, and the same candleholder is also available as a 2-set of Medium and Small and a 3-set of all three.
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.
Wipe the steel with a damp cloth and mild soap. The glass cylinder lifts out and can be washed by hand to remove wax and soot.
Yes. The clear glass cylinder is available on its own product page as a spare part, so a broken glass never retires the candleholder.
Tom comes in four frame colours: black, beige, white and taupe. Switch between them with the colour swatches on this page, in any size.
