Candlesticks can be made from different materials including gold, silver, crystal or glass. "Candlestick holders" are used in candle making.

A "candle holder" is an item of metalwork which holds a candle, usually for burning. Candles can also be made from wax, a wick and a container for the melted wax. Most candles are made from paraffin wax, which is made by refining petroleum into liquid form in order to achieve a high melting point. A candelabra is a candlestick holder with a candle mounted on a stick, as well as a candle base. In the past, it was also used for more portable candles such as those made of beeswax or tallow. A "candle snuffer" is a metal snuffer for candles. It usually has a handle and a base with holes for the candle's wick to attach to and operate. When lit, it extinguishes the flame of the candle leaving just the wick glowing.
