Count Down to Christmas Candle - / Advent calendar candle - 24-candle set & glass stand by Ferm Living Grey

Ferm Living Candle Grey Glass. Dimensions: Container / candle holder: Ø 8.6 x H 13.8 cm – Candles: Ø 1,3 x H 13 cm. Start the Christmas countdown with this modern version of the traditional Danish Advent calendar candles. The Advent calendar candle is a typically Danish Christmas tradition: it counts down the 24 days before Christmas Eve. It lets you symbolically mark the waiting and expectation. This pretty glass container houses 24 small, long candles: one for each day in December leading up to Christmas Eve. The glass lid also serves as a candle holder. A candle should be lit each evening from 1 December (burning time of a candle: approximately 2 hours). It’s a friendly, festive ritual you can share as a family. Often, it’s down to the children to extinguish the candle before it burns down too much. Once all the candles are used up, the pretty glass box can hold all kinds of small items until next Christmas.
