FOR THE HOLIDAYS

A plethora of candles

Candles create merry moments during the holidays. Red Envelope offers styles sure to suit your reason to celebrate.

Wish ’em well. Mercury-glass votive holders are jeweled-tone candle cups that bear a message of goodwill peace, love, dream, wish, joy and cheer etched on each. Set of six with tea lights, $48.

Go artsy. A brushed stainless steel oil lamp candle features a delicate cutout form that casts a tree shadow on the wall. Crafted by Brooklyn artist Adam Frank. Magnolia, pine or cedar. $48.

Sculpture ’em. Designed by Arik Levy, crystal candlesticks are handmade and named for natural crystal formations. $129-$710.

Go gong. Heavy-weight sculptural pieces called “gong crystal votives” come in clear, red, purple, jade and smoky gray. $85 each.

Loop it up. English designers create these chrome loop candleholders. Each holds two tapers, not included. $24 per holder.
