These tea light holders are in the shape of a spider and made of cast iron. Painted black, they have a heavy-duty body and 8 metal legs, and the tea light fits into the top of the back. There are 2 that measure 2" high x 5" wide, and 1 that measures 3.5" high x 5" wide. Bought at Pottery Barn in the late 90's, they are in great condition. Creepy and perfect for halloween.
