• Technical Info

  Use only good quality metal-cupped tea lights (no other types of candles) in the lantern. The candles should have a maximum diameter of 42 millimeters. Leave an adequate gap for air to circulate between a tea light candle and the walls of a glass lantern. Glass is more fragile when hot. Let the Kivi cool down after it has burned out, before you move it.
