A candle snuffer in warm brass finish, designed as a small bird with a long slender handle. Snuffing rather than blowing keeps wax pools clean, spares the room a ribbon of smoke, and ends a candle evening the way it began, gently.

The word curfew once meant exactly this: from the Norman French couvre-feu, the evening bell that told households to cover their fires. Some rituals are worth keeping. A small object that makes a disproportionately good gift, and the natural companion to any candle in the house.
