One of the earliest types of decorations for the tree, counter-balance style holders have been used to trim Christmas trees since the 1860's. Also referred to as pendulum candle holders, weights at the bottom of the holder acts as a "counter balance" to keep candles held securely upright on the boughs of your Christmas tree.

These tin candle holders are made with bas-relief metal weights in the shape of a fir tree pinecone. The decorative weights are firmly welded onto the end of the pendulum wire.
