Imma go with fire hazard

If left unattended it could be a fire hazard from the open flame, but other than the small candles, everything is made from metal and not a hazard.

Looks painful for those cherubs.

Why not both?

We had on of those when I was younger, but it had a music box under it.

Pfft. Ours was made of wood.

keep away from cats, kids and guys wearing dickies, drinking eggnog from moose cups

Fire Hazards for Freedom!

And Jesus…Sorry.

Wood...pfft. Our original one was made of magnesium and benzene soaked rags!

I think every swedish home had one of these in the 80’s

My parents have one of those. It also came with a set of horses, so you could swap the cherubs out lol

My parents had this exact thing, purchased in the UK, probably late 70s early 80s. I remember it well from my childhood.

You can tell that it was made for smaller (ie lower) candles. I’ve had one ever since I was a child and nothing happened.

My mom used to have one of these 20+ years ago. I had totally forgot about its existence

Why would this be a fire hazard?

Fuck ugly

Omg my mom had one I totally forgot about it until now! It’s cool but ya. Kind of a fire hazard 😂

Same! The memories…

Indeed

Also in Denmark and still going at Christmas time it’s a must have for danish Hygge

I remember getting this at a garden centre. When I saw it, the memories flooded back. Got it home, put it up, was totally enthralled, then 30 years of adulting and open flame discipline started nibbling away at the thrill. Love having it out and lit and twirling, but it comes with a healthy set of rules. Sadly, the battery powered tea lights don't twirl it, for some reason... ;)

Many decades of adulting have made me anxious around open flames in the home. Warm and fuzzies get shouted down by screams of 'OMG IT WILL KILL US ALL IN OUR SLEEP!!!'. My inner child is incapacitated. I blame the media.

Aw now I want one again

So was ours. It caught on fire. Twice.

Don’t let Cousin Eddie get near it…

In Finland too. My parents had one of those. I may or may not have broken it.
