The bell-shaped design is highly effective for most standard pillar, taper, and jar candles. It works best when you can easily lower the bell over the wick, so it may be less effective for very deep jar candles where the wick is far below the rim.

The snuffer features an antiqued gold finish, which is designed to look aged and rustic from the start. While it is durable, you can maintain its appearance by keeping it in a dry environment and occasionally buffing it with a soft, lint-free cloth.
