About 1228-001/S2 Candle Holder
What is 1228-001/S2 Candle Holder?
The 1228-001/S2 Candle Holder, part of the Gust collection by Sterling Industries, delivers a timeless silhouette that elevates any candle-lighting arrangement. Crafted with a polished metal finish, the holder balances aesthetic refinement with practical stability, supporting standard pillar or taper candles without wobble.
Measuring a modest height that fits comfortably on dining tables, sideboards, or mantelpieces, the piece features a broad base that distributes weight evenly. The open-top design allows heat to rise freely, reducing the risk of wax overflow while showcasing the flame’s glow. Because the holder is finished in a neutral brushed metal, it integrates seamlessly with both contemporary and classic interiors.
Its understated elegance makes it a versatile accent for formal events such as weddings, gala dinners, or upscale hotel lobbies, as well as everyday home décor. Installation requires no assembly; the holder arrives ready to use. Pair it with unscented candles to let the design speak, or choose scented pillars for an added sensory layer. The product’s price of $325.60 reflects the premium materials and the craftsmanship associated with Sterling’s Gust line.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size candles fit the 1228-001/S2 Candle Holder?
▾
The holder is engineered to accommodate standard pillar candles ranging from 2 to 3 inches in diameter and taper candles up to 6 inches in length. It does not support oversized novelty candles, but most commercially available scented or unscented pillars will sit securely within the base.
Does the holder require any assembly?
▾
No assembly is needed. The 1228-001/S2 arrives fully assembled, with the metal base and candle cradle welded together. You simply unpack, place it on a stable surface, and insert your chosen candles. This ready-to-use approach saves time and eliminates the need for tools.
How does the metal finish affect durability?
▾
The polished brushed metal finish not only provides a sleek aesthetic but also forms a protective layer that resists scratches and tarnish. Regular dusting with a soft cloth maintains its shine, and the underlying alloy is robust enough to endure frequent candle changes without warping.
Is the candle holder suitable for outdoor use?
▾
While the metal construction can tolerate mild weather, the holder is primarily intended for indoor environments where temperature fluctuations are limited. Exposure to rain or direct sunlight may affect the finish over time, so for outdoor events consider a weather-rated alternative.
Can I purchase matching accessories from the Gust collection?
▾
Sterling Industries offers a range of complementary pieces within the Gust line, including decorative glass inserts, coordinated candle trays, and matching wall sconces. These accessories share the same brushed metal aesthetic, allowing you to create a cohesive lighting theme across a room.
