The Advent candle ring in black is a flat metal circle with four candle holders that strips festive decorating back to one clear shape. Instead of a dense wreath of branches you get a circle of 30 cm diameter, standing on small feet on the table and ready to take four taper candles of 2 cm diameter. If you like a minimalist Advent wreath, this is the quiet version.

The black surface stands out against pale tablecloths, wooden boards and stone surfaces, which leaves the four flames as the real subject. At 4.5 cm high the holder stays low enough not to block the view across the table. And since it weighs only 240 g, moving it around takes no effort: from the dining table to the windowsill, from the chest of drawers to the sideboard next to the sofa.

The ring measures 30 cm across and is only 4.5 cm high. It takes the centre of a dining table without swallowing the space for plates and glasses. The four candle holders sit evenly around the circle and are made for taper candles of 2 cm diameter.

You pick the candles yourself: classic white as shown in the product photo, or a shade that matches your crockery and table linen.

The ring is made of metal, kept black throughout, from the little feet to the candle holders. The slim profile reads like a drawn line on the tabletop, and the small feet lift the circle slightly off the surface. The holder is made in China.

This one is for everyone who likes minimalist, Scandinavian-leaning design and does not want a bulky wreath on the table in December. It fits homes where black, wood and white already come together, and it stays calm beside a plain set of crockery. As a gift it works for Advent and Christmas, and just as well as a housewarming present for someone putting together their first Christmas decorations. If you would rather reuse the same base shape every year and only change the candle colour, this is a sensible buy.

Place the ring on a level, stable surface so the four candles stand upright. Around the circle you have a free hand: fir branches, cones, eucalyptus or a few berries can simply be laid down loosely, with nothing to fix in place, and once Advent is over only the black circle is left. Never leave burning candles unattended, and keep enough distance between the flames and any decorative material. As a present, add four taper candles of 2 cm diameter and Advent can start straight away. Because the shape itself stays neutral, you can also set four plain candles into it in January and carry on using the ring without any greenery.
