WASHINGTON, March 10 (UPI) -- The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recall of about 18,000 square tea light candle holders sold by Pier 1 Imports Inc.

The CPSC said the Philippine-made holders might burn unexpectedly quickly and with a higher flame height than normal, posing a fire hazard.

The metal tea light candle holders have a silver metallic top with a black base and nine square openings for use with tea light candles. The product's SKU number 2174941 is printed on the bottom of the base. The recalled units were sold at Pier 1 stores nationwide from last June through December.

Consumers can return the holders to any Pier 1 store for a refund or store credit. Additional information can be obtained from the company at 800-245-4595.
