About
A candle snuffer works by lowering a small cup over the flame, cutting off its oxygen supply for a clean, smoke-free extinguish. This avoids the hot wax splatter and sideways-pushed wick that can come from blowing a candle out, and adds a touch of elegance to your candlelit moments. It pairs naturally with any candles collection and completes a home or altar setup.
How to use it
Lower the metal cup gently over the lit wick until the flame goes out, then lift straight up. Keep the wood handle away from the flame while lowering the cup, and let the metal cup cool fully before setting it down or storing it.
Care
Wipe the metal cup clean of soot or wax residue with a soft, dry cloth once it has cooled. Keep the wood handle dry and away from prolonged moisture to prevent warping; browse more pieces in our other items collection.
