This is the first time I have been disappointed with Pottery Barn. The workmanship was poor on the hurricanes.

Used for Unity candle
September 12, 2012
This hurricane is beautiful. With the monogram, it will be perfect for use at my wedding for my Unity candle holder. After the wedding, it will make a perfect centerpiece for my table. I can fill it with vase fillers for the season, or a candle.

My 2nd. Favorite Candle
February 12, 2012
My most favorite candle is your bees wax received as a gift.
I have both types all over m house and use them a lot,
especially during holidays. I have one in a PB crystal holder with a silver
plated rim on a table in my foryer with a collage of other PB holders and candles. Looks magnificent!!!

Pretty, but high maintenance
January 13, 2012
I have not been happy with my purchase for 2 reasons:
1) I was not expecting the base piece to be separated from the glass piece. As a result, I find that these are a little unstable when empty. However, this does make them easier to clean.
2) A bigger problem with these is that in the short time (~1 month) I have had these, I noticed that they have "tarnished"; specifically, the silver base and lip of the hurricane have been progressively turning into a gold/brass color. I believe they can be cleaned/polished, but I would not have ordered these if I had known they would involve such significant cleaning/maintenance.

Silver Plated Hurricanes

I bought this as a gift for some friends 25th Anniversary. I had it monogramed. They loved it! I did too! Too bad I had to give it away. Maybe someone will get one for me!!

Not worth the money
December 17, 2010
I really didn't think this was worth the money. For being solid glass, it was pretty thin and lightweight and the silver plating didn't look very nice. The silver looked painted on and not very evenly placed. Other items I have bought at Pottery barn have been a very good quality, but not this.

Beautiful, but unsteady.
December 6, 2010
I recieved this beautiful hurricane as a gift. I love the look of it but the glass portion of the hurricane does not fit the base as it should.
