Skull & Crossbones - Tea Light Holder

Skull & Crossbones The skull and cross bones is a classic symbol of death, used traditionally on tombstones, to symbolize danger. Most commonly, the symbol has also been used on the "jolly roger" flag used by the pirates in the 1700's. In Tampa, we celebrate the Gasparilla Pirate Festival, and the pirate associated with it Jose´ Gaspar, and for that reason, we created the SKULL AND CROSSBONES tea light ( not to mention it's cool looking ). A ONE-OF-A-KIND GIFT WITH MEANING, READY TO GIVE! This beautiful birch wood SKULL AND CROSSBONES tea light holder comes fully assembled and complete with it's own LED faux candle, ready to display. We laser cut the unique design, and hand assemble them in our workshop based in Tampa Florida USA. The holder projects a subtle abstract version of the design with flickering light patterns on a wall or surrounding surfaces ( as pictured ).** Assembly: This item ships pre-assembled with an LED tea light. Material: Birch Plywood Finishing: unfinished Size: 3.5 x 3.5 x 3.25 inches ** Candle Safety: For the sample picture we have used a battery LED faux candle (WHICH WE INCLUDE WITH YOUR TEA LIGHT HOLDER ). We recommend battery operated tea lights, as LEDs are safest and can be left unattended. There is a "centering" circle/ring in the holder made for a tea candle. If you choose use a real flame version set in the metal cup, please DO NOT LEAVE IT UNATTENDED ( use standard candle safety ) as the item is made of wood. The candle flame is unobstructed and the heat goes straight up. We have tested them and they work just fine, we just prefer the ease and peace of mind of the LED. The big plus of an LED, is that you can place it anywhere, on a shelf without a concern of flame.
