Bad news for enthusiasts of offensive retro trinkets: Anthropologie has pulled that $400 racist candlestick and apologized.

As Buzzfeed reports:

Anthropologie Public Relations Director Sara Goodstein explains, “An independent artisan makes these one-of-a-kind candlesticks from vintage ceramics. Unfortunately two that we received included extremely inappropriate figurines, and we have removed them from our website.” She adds: “We sincerely regret the offense we have caused.”
