One of the hottest areas of

Spillvases, also known as spill holders or “spillikins”, were decorative objectsused in the past for practical purposes.Their popularity was mainly during the 18th & 19th centuries. Themain function of a spill vase was to hold & dispense spills.

What is a Spill or Taper?

ABritish dictionary published in 1855 defined a spill as “A strip of paperrolled up to light a lamp or cigar.” Theword loosely derives from “spile,” a small wooden peg. Although “spills” hadbeen around for a long time, the term was not in use until the 19th century,when it first appeared in British dictionaries.

Ofcourse, now that one Spills or Tapers, one needed a container to hold them . .. hence the development of “SPILL VASES”.

Evenafter matches became widely available, Spills were often preferred because theyburned slowly & evenly, making them more reliable for transferring a flame.
