Alison and her husband with Adrian
Hungerford Arcade staff and stallholders are always fascinated by what people collect. A lovely couple called in looking for candle snuffers and as always, there was a good selection for them to choose from.
Candle snuffers come in all shapes and sizes. Some are just a metal hood on a wood or metal handle which vary in length due to the height one had to reach to put out the candles. Others are much more elaborate and highly decorated. There are some for wick trimming as well as candle snuffing and are shaped like a pair of scissors with a box on the top. These can be very beautiful.
Alison and her husband found just what they were looking for and thoroughly enjoyed their day out.
