My family used this on our dinner table during Advent 2014. The chimneys on ours are glass. By the 3rd week, a purple chimney was broken. Another chimney was broken the last week of Advent. Even one of the brass candle holders broke off the wreath. I cannot find a source for replacing the chimneys and will not purchase another complete set.

I bought this set two years ago. Its a relief not to have to replace candles each year and battery tea lights work perfectly. The tubes are hard plastic rather than glass and dont break. The staggered stands make seeing all four candles easy and the set more attractive. The bottom-to-stands height makes for many decorating options; I chose draping it in a couple of inexpensive garlands for a nest effect. The price makes it a real bargain. A total win-win; thank you.

I thought this was a non-fussy option for an advent wreath. The only drawback is that the gold wire base in the one I received was a very thin wire in a yellowy-gold, not as sturdy and antiqued gold like shown.
