Squirrel Pewter Candle Snuffer by Vagabond House


Sale price$92.00
Available to Ship Icon Available to Ship: 3-7 Business Days

A squirrel with a nut perches on a curved branch above the bell of this pewter candle snuffer. An acorn pattern finishes the bell, extending the woodland detail across a tool designed for the end of the evening.

“I like a snuffer close to the candles before they are lit. It makes the end of supper as deliberate as the beginning, with no search for a tool beside an open flame.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Care & Ownership

Lower the snuffer bell gently over the flame until it is fully out; check that the wick is no longer glowing. Let the bell and any wax cool before touching or cleaning.

Maker / Heritage

Vagabond House began in 1986 by turning antique silver tableware into jewelry and table accents. The Haas and Hardy families focused the company on tableware after acquiring it in 2004, and three generations now contribute to the Sierra Madre, California business. Its designers look closely at nature, old architecture and antiques, then work with carvers, artisans and fabricators to bring those ideas into useful objects. In the pewter work, details such as the veins of an oak leaf or the textured skin of a pear are carved and polished into the form. That attention to small, recognizable things gives the pieces much of their character at the table.
