Chamberstick
A chamberstick is a holder for one or more candles, used for illumination, rituals, or decorative purposes. The name 'chamberstick' derives from the fact that it is usually tall and stick-shaped. Chambersticks are also called candle holders. However, not all candle holders are chamberstick unless they are tall and stick-like. Before the proliferation of electricity services, candles were brought into the bedroom using chambersticks, which were shorter than ordinary candleholders and furnished with a wide pan to catch the wax drippings.
