Handcrafted lanterns made of wood and metal as well as candle holders in industrial design

Protected light in its most beautiful form. In our category Lanterns & Candle Holders, we combine solid wood and sturdy metal into handcrafted unique pieces. These light sources are more than just decoration – they are an expression of true craftsmanship and rely on the exciting contrast of natural and industrial materials.

Whether as an atmospheric welcome in the entrance area or as cozy lighting on the terrace: each piece is crafted with elaborate handwork. Discover lanterns that are robust enough for everyday use and at the same time create a comfortable, warm atmosphere in your home.

Light Islands for Indoors and Outdoors

Light is the key to coziness. With our collection "Lantern, Candle Holder & Co." you create warm light islands that radiate comfort. Unlike simple decorative items, at Tischonkel we rely on materials with substance: solid teak wood, heavy iron, and thick-walled glass. These pieces are made to last – whether as a highlight in the living room or as a weatherproof companion on the terrace.

Highlights: Floor Candle Holders & Material Mix

Our floor candle holders are particularly popular. These often knee- to hip-high objects combine a rustic wooden base (e.g., made from old teak root) with a large glass cylinder. They offer perfect protection for the candle flame against drafts and cast a fascinating play of light into the room through the glass structure. For fans of industrial design, we also offer metal lanterns in a vintage look that go wonderfully with brick walls and leather furniture.

Atmosphere Meets Safety

The advantage of lanterns and candle holders is obvious: the open flame is safely enclosed. This not only provides a calm, flicker-free light but also increases safety – ideal when pets walk by or a gentle breeze blows on the balcony.

Decoration with Function

Use our lanterns not only as a light source but as sculptural elements. Arrange them in groups of different sizes in a corner of the room, place a large candle holder in the entrance area as a welcome greeting, or use them to bathe the garden in soft light on long summer evenings.

FAQ: Questions about Lanterns & Candle Holders

Are the lanterns suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, our lanterns protect the flame from wind and are ideal for terraces or entrance areas. Please note: Teak wood is weather-resistant but develops a silvery-grey patina outdoors. Untreated metal can develop surface rust – an effect often even desired in vintage style.

Which candles should I use?

For our large floor candle holders and lanterns, we recommend thick pillar candles with long burn times, as these have the best visual effect. Alternatively, high-quality LED real wax candles provide safe ambiance without heat generation and soot.

What distinguishes a windlight from a candle holder?

In a windlight or lantern, the flame is protected by glass (cylinders or panes). This creates a steadier light without constant flickering and significantly increases safety, especially when children or pets are in the household.

How do I clean the glass inserts?

The glass cylinders of our teak windlights are usually removable. They can be easily cleaned with warm water, dish soap, or common glass cleaner. Soot marks on the upper edge can be easily removed with a damp cloth.

Are the wooden lanterns solid?

Absolutely. We do not use thin plywood but solid teak wood, often even rustic root wood or recycled old wood. This makes our lanterns heavy, stable (even in gusts of wind), and extremely durable.
