Whoever created this item didn't think about the real use - putting candles inside. It's impossible to do so without having at least one side clipping, as shown on the image.
It's called High elf candle holder, sturdy. You'll have to add an extra candle here, because it's sold/crafted separately AND it's not fitting without clipping. Still it looks neat on the table or above the bed.
I think that's called a small candle or something. Try finding the smallest candle in the crown store under "Lighting" menu in the Housing Editor. That will be the name for crafting.
on a similar note:
1. @ZOS_GinaBruno why, when crafted, does this item fall under "Lighting" when it doesn't light?
2. Why does the Dark Elf Candle Holder include the candle and the High Elf version does not?

Rule #1: RL trumps gaming.
Rule #2: True immersion is RL.
Rule #3: RL lag is wonderful.
Rule #4: People matter. Pixels do not.
Btw, how did you get this candle? Is it craftable?
Speaking of candles, y'know what's stupid about candles? There are three recipes in game for candles. Common Candles, Single, Common Candles, Pair and Common Candles, Set.
Depending on which blueprint you know affects how many candles you can make. If you can make a single candle you, somehow, are without the logic to make multiple candles and put them in groups. Likewise, if you have the Candles, Set recipe you lack the knowledge to make a single candle. You understand how to make THREE CANDLES at once... but taking two of them away to make a single, solitary candle is somehow far beyond your knowledge.
I don't get why ZOS couldn't make a single blueprint for "common candles" and unlock the knowledge for all off them. Housing is enough of a grind as it is, but to have the same knowledge
There are two blueprints for Beets. The only difference is one of them has a string. Somehow, adding a string to a root vegetable is beyond our knowledge unless we have specific instructions.
Ehm.... I was looking for information about this item and what candle actually goes with it, and found this post from year of our-deity-of-choice 2017. It is now nearly 2025, and it still seems that no candles fit properly into this holder without clipping.
Unless I have missed something...?!
However, I did discover the Breton chambersticks (tall and short), which are charming candleholders with candles included. But I am not sure why these are separate crafting recipes, considering a short candle is just one that has been used a fair bit. The shorter version should come with the tall chamberstick plans. Therefore, I sit in agreement that the many separate candle furnishing plans could be whittled down. (Also strung versus not-strung vegetables.)
Right now I just want my high elf to have high elf furnishings, but for some reason she has to import Breton candleholders.
We have closed this topic as it was originally created in February 2017. In many cases, it's better to create a new thread on a topic that you want to discuss as opposed to bumping one that is rather old.
