Wallace Fountain Pop-Up Candle Holder

Discover the Wallace Fountain candle holder, a heartfelt tribute to the famous Wallace fountains that adorn the streets of the French capital. Handcrafted with passion in our family workshop in Paris, this candle holder is made from green PEFC® certified paper, guaranteeing its authenticity and durability. It is a truly artisanal, authentic and local Paris souvenir that embodies the legacy of Sir Richard Wallace, who gave the fountains to the city more than 150 years ago.

Each face of this Wallace Fountain candle holder represents one of the values dear to Sir Wallace: kindness, sobriety, simplicity and charity. These values come to life through delicate motifs and paper-lace details, creating a warm atmosphere steeped in history. The main face is a pop-up, bringing the Wallace fountain to life in all its splendour.

As part of the celebrations marking the 150th anniversary of the Wallace Fountain, a replica of the fountain was installed in the gardens of the Musée Carnavalet in Paris, giving these fountains an even stronger historical and symbolic dimension. By choosing this candle holder, you take home a piece of Parisian history and keep the beauty of the Wallace fountains alive in your own home.

Assembly is child's play! By following our step-by-step tutorial, it takes shape in less than 5 minutes, with no glue or scissors required. It is perfectly suited to children aged 12 and over. Once assembled, simply slide a 45 mm diameter LED tealight candle through the notched slot beneath the holder to enhance the paper-lace details of each face. The soft glow of the LED candle highlights the motifs and creates a warm, welcoming ambiance.

Measuring 9x7x12.5 cm (length x width x height), this candle holder is easy to carry: it ships flat inside a tracing-paper envelope printed with a QR code that links to our assembly tutorial.
