Bring a touch of Icelandic inspiration to your home with the Fire & Ice Transforming Candle Holder.

Why Choose the Fire & Ice Transforming Candle Holder?
Where fire meets ice, magic happens. The Fire & Ice Transforming Candle Holder begins as a frosty ice ring and gradually melts, giving way to warm light that dances and shimmers. As the ice melts, it transforms the candlelight, creating a calming ambiance and a visual journey that is both meditative and enchanting. With each use, you can create a unique display that captures the fleeting beauty of nature.
