Our ceramic bases are handcrafted in the USA, in colors specially designed to coordinate with our candles. Bases are $10 and you have a choice of smooth or textured. As a rule of thumb we feel the smooth bases coordinate best with our ribbon-type candles and the textured bases coordinate better with our scenic round candles. Can?t decide which color to choose? Let us pick the base for you. Select option ?Choose Best? under color choices. Please see the color choices here.
