Our Bespoke Yule goat candle holder is designed to play with the light and cast shadows through its horns. It maked a beautiful center piece for holiday festivities. We only do a small run of these each year as the holidays approach, get yours while we have them!
The Yule Goat has traditionally been a symbol representing community and bounty. Rarely is the spirit of these two values more pronounced than during the holiday seasons. In Sweden the Yule goat is regarded as a watchful spirt, over the home, ensuring that the holiday preparations were done right, but there is also a mischievous side to this little spirit.
Scandinavian society would use the goat to prank one's friends and family. He would be left at possibly a neighbor's house without them noticing; and the neighboring family, successfully pranked, had to get rid of the little trickster in the same way.
So gather your loved ones together to share in the bounty of your home and of your table this holiday season under the watchful gaze of the Yule goat, but don’t be surprised if he encourages a little mischief around your table this holiday season. The candle holder Measures approximately 7.25" high and is cold blued then finshed with a satin clear coat.
