The Home Depot is recalling about 14,000 candle holders. Sunlight passing through the glass portion can cause nearby flammable materials to ignite, posing a fire hazard.
The firm has received one report of a fire. No injuries or property damage have been reported.
The sun-shaped candle holder is glass and metal, and was sold in four colors (red, green, blue, and yellow). "15.75" Candle Holder" is printed on the product's hang tag.
The items were sold at The Home Depot stores in the southern and western regions of the U.S. from January 2008 through March 2008 for about $10. They were made in China.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled products and return them to The Home Depot for a full refund.
For additional information, call toll-free (866) 403-5504 between 8:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. ET, or visit the company's Web site at www.homedepot.com.
The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
