I have always loved the Moravian Star. I purchased this one about 5 years ago in a garden/vintage store. I placed a battery powered pillar candle inside. The candle has a timer that allows the candle to glow for 5 hours before turning off. The timer is designed to turn on and off at the same time daily once set.

The Moravian Star is an illuminated Advent, Christmas, or Epiphany decoration popular in Germany, the United States and Europe. The star takes it's English name for the Moravian Church in Germany. It is also known as the Herrnhut Star. The star was first commercially produced in Saxony, Germany. From sources that I have found, they were first produced around 1850.
