Asda said: "Despite conforming to all legally required flammability testing, we are recalling these candle holders as a precaution.

"We have identified the potential for the candle holder to reach high temperatures when a candle is left burning at the base of the recess.

"If left unsupervised this could cause the top of the holder to catch alight.

"If you have purchased either Stacey wooden candle holders, please bring them back to your nearest store where you will be given a full refund.

"You do not need your receipt. We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused.
