Spoleto Wood and Glass Hurricane, Medium

Spoleto Hurricane, Medium is the middle size of the Spoleto hurricanes from LoftModern Curations: a clear glass cylinder set into a round wood base and edged with a slim brass ring.

It measures 9.5 in across and 18 in high, tall enough to shelter a thick pillar candle with room above the flame.

The Design Story

Spoleto sets glass on timber. The base is a chunky wooden ring with visible grain, in tones that run from honey to deep brown, and the cylinder rises out of it as if from a tree stump. A thin brass band finishes the rim, with a soft, aged tone in the medium size. Clear glass leaves the candle fully visible. The proportion is tall and sturdy, a lantern for a table rather than a hand.

Why You’ll Love It

The hurricane shields the flame from drafts and gives its light a steady glow. Wood lends warmth, glass lends lightness, and brass ties them with a fine line. It reads equally well on a patio table or a dining room sideboard.

Questions We Hear Most

How tall is the medium Spoleto hurricane?

It stands 18 in (45.7 cm) tall and 9.5 in (24.1 cm) across, between the small and large sizes.

What candle size should I use?

A pillar candle that sits comfortably within the base, as shown in our photograph, works best. Choose one that leaves clearance below the glass rim.

Are the wood tones identical on every piece?

No. The wood grain and color vary, so each base has its own pattern.

How do I clean it?

Wipe the glass with a soft damp cloth and the wood with a dry one. Keep the wooden base away from standing water.

Why We Love It

Wood, glass and a line of brass. Warm light in a tall, sturdy shape.
