Every piece tells a story of artistry, sustainability and fair trade craftsmanship
These candle holders give a soft desert glow to our candle-lit living room when we sit and confide.
For years now I have bought the Hebron glass candle holders to light tea lights (solar or flame) in connection with those suffering the violence we've perpetrated in Gaza and West Bank and beyond. I have been concerned about the Hebron glass artisans since finding this connections through their art (and the sand they send too) Now that Hebron the city itself is under siege and neighborhoods being destroyed, I feel devastated and am hoping we who have the Hebron glass can all keep lights on and maybe post photos on internet in solidarity with their dire situation there. (I tried to post a photo of mine but crashed my message in doing so.
Perfect to light a candle and say prayers for the suffering in the holy land, to pray for mercy and repentance. I also ordered the travelers candles (2oz, various scents) in tin containers that fit perfectly into the glass, and burn longer than the tiny tea lights. Keeping this on my table during the long winter months

Mine looks nothing like the photo- its greenish yellow and brown/tan. Still, happy to support the store and I imagine what's happening in the West Bank may have impacted the production of these candleholders.
Hi Bri! We’re sorry that the Desert Sands Candleholder is not what you were expecting. While the details section does say there may be shades of yellow and that each piece is one-of-a-kind and color variations are expected, we want to check and see how far off it is from what we have pictures of and make sure there are no production issues. Please keep an eye on your email inbox as we’ll be reaching out to you to see if we can get a picture that shows more of the colors. Thank you!

Understood that item would not be identical to picture but way too much yellow and amber and hardly any blue so does not work for occasion/wedding I bought it for. I will not try again, too costly to risk getting stuck with another one I do not like and cannot use.
Hi Norma! We’re sorry to hear that the Desert Sands Candleholder you received does not work for the occasion you intended to use it for. I’m going to send you an email and request a picture of the one you received so we can see how far off it is from the product description. We want to make sure the description aligns with what is being sent out. Thank you for your support and feedback!
The recipient was very pleased with the artist craft and that it was supporting an artist from Palestine.
Gave to two separate households who both loved the glowing craftmanship!
They are so beautiful. My friend liked them so much I sent 2 more to her, she loves them too !!!
So pretty - a perfect mood light!
These are beautiful. I was given a set of 4 of these as a gift, and we use them all the time. We've used them as candle holders but we more often use them as drinking glasses! We always get complements on them when we have guests. I love that each one is slightly different as well. Beautiful work.
My husband bought this candle for me as a gift for Christmas. It is a beautiful piece of art. Not just your normal everyday candle. We also bought one as a gift for a family member and she loved it. The colors are different but both beautiful. Very good quality and a good size for the price.
I've been eyeing these up in the stores, but never pulled the trigger due to the price. I feel $35 is a bit much for a votive candle holder, but the money does support a wonderful cause. A close friend of mine has a birthday coming up so I decided to purchase these for her. I haven't given them to her yet, but I know she will love them. They shipped quickly and look very similar to the picture and the ones I've seen in the store. They even came with a tea light candle and small bag of sand (to steady the tea light while in the holder). Considering purchasing a set for myself now.
The Phoenician glass pieces are beautiful in their own right, but, the unique, hand-made aspect, and the way the light dances through the colored glass with a candle burning inside make this a wonderful addition to your collection. Highly recommend.
I love the Phoenician glass candle holder. The colors are beautiful even when the candle is not lit. I love that it is made of recycled glass and that no two are alike.
I love the swirls of glass in these! the fact that they're completely recycled doesn't hurt either!
Each one of these candleholders one of a kind and is absolutely beautiful. Makes a great gift or a little something for yourself.
Wow! These are so pretty! I love that each one is unique because they are handblown. Even though it says candleholder, you can also use them as a stemless wine glass! ????
A beautiful, unique candleholder from the West Bank, which can also be used as a stemless wine glass. We gave them to our son and his fiancée to use for toasting at their rehearsal dinner and for romantic candlelight on other occasions. Makes a special gift for others ... and for yourself.
The Phoenician Glass collection is an amazing gift for anyone at any age. Because each one is handmade, there are no two alike. Every time I give the Desert Sands Candleholder as a gift, it's always a hit!
Love, love, love this beautiful Phoenician glass candle holder from the West Bank.
We purchased these to use as stemless wine glasses, and my wife loves them. She displays them on top of the counter when we're not using them.
I love that each candleholder is unique and includes sand for a tea light candle to sit on inside. The glow when lit is absolutely gorgeous! I would highly recommend this for anyone as a gift or to treat yourself to something beautiful!
I bought 5 of these for our mantel piece and they look beautiful! Each one is slightly different from the other since they’re handmade. They are stylish, unique and so pretty when candles are lit.
This candle holder is beautiful and well-made. Each one is slightly different as they are made by hand. Very much as pictured. Highly recommended.
