A candle snuffer has a handle and head, and a suction mechanism that pulls a gas from the head and through a filter. Snuffer heads can be painted or otherwise decorated, and in especially preferred embodiments snuffer heads can be detachable and interchangeable. The suction mechanism is preferably motorized, and preferably has a rather small operating capacity. The filter can be upstream or downstream of the motor, and preferably filters out particles down to 5 μm in size.
