Cherub Wings Candle Holder ~ Vintage

Description This vintage 90s Cherub Wings Candle Holder fits standard tea light or votive candles. Cherubs were quite popular in the 90s and often used in home decor to evoke a sense of whimsy and charm. Their presence in art and culture, in religious and romantic contexts, love and Valentine’s Day made them appealing for various decorative styles during that era. Cherubs are a type of supernatural being in the Abrahamic religions. The numerous depictions assign them many different roles; such as protecting the entrance of the Garden of Eden. In Jewish angelichierarchy, cherubim have the ninth (second-lowest) rank in Maimonides’ Mishneh Torah (12th century), and the third rank in Kabbalistic works such as Berit Menuchah (14th century). The Christian work De Coelesti Hierarchia places them in the highest rank alongside Seraphim and Thrones. Candles, candlesticks, and chambersticks have been used in religious rituals and spiritual means serving as both functional and symbolic lights. Please remember that these are vintage so some may have some minor scuffs. 1 vintage chonky Cherub Wings Candle Holder ~ candles not included.
