Historically, candle mats protected the finish of fine furniture from candle wax drips. Did you know that in the 1700-1800’s most tables were finished with shellac? Wax bonds and melts into the finish making it almost impossible to remove a candle wax drip, hence the necessity of a candle mat. Many of the finishes used today are less susceptible to this problem. Today, our candle mats do the same thing while giving your home a distinctive accent under lamps, votives, or other items on tables and dressers.
Our candle mat kits are in the style of penny rugs from the early 1800’s. These measure 83⁄4″ diameter and are two layers thick with 7⁄8″ and 11⁄2″ penny appliqués.
Everything you need to start is right in the package including all cut wool felt, floss, a needle and instructions.
