During the early 1700's immigrants would celebrate the approaching holidays by lighting a Cressett, filled with firewood outside their homes to welcome friends to their homes to enjoy the holidays. The light given off by the Cressetts would cast a warming glow of yesteryear while carolers would crowd around to celebrate the approaching holidays. You’ll want to enjoy your Colonial Cressett during the holidays, parties, yuletide celebrations or anytime as a welcoming symbol outside your home. Cressetts may also be used to line your pool, to illuminate your surrounding property or as a spring and summer planter. The adjustable height pole provides varying levels of height adjustment for a multitude of viewing options. 

The Colonial Cressett is made with only the highest quality materials found here in the United States and includes the following features; 

• High quality wrought iron steel construction welded to provide strength and Colonial style and appeal.
• Stainless Steel screening specifically manufactured for each Cressett holds firewood and retards embers from escaping.
• Unique three section poles that offer individual positions to allow the display of wood burning or floral arrangements at your desired height.
• Heat temperature paint that will withstand temperatures up to 500˚F to maintain that wrought iron appearance for the life of your Cressett.
• Specially designed accessories to go with your Colonial Cressett. 
• 100% recycled packaging materials.
