This hand-forged iron courting candleholder hails from an early American custom. When a young man went to court a young lady, the girl's father would light a candle. When the flame burned down to the candleholder, it was time for the young man to leave. How close to the spirals the father set the candle was dependent on how well he liked or disliked the young man. The candle can be adjusted with a wooden pin. Perfect for Sweet Sixteen, Father's Day, or just because... Crafted by Jonathan Ratliff.
