Three Heights, One Line Of Light

Candlesticks work in odd numbers and at different heights — that is the entire rule, and it is why a set of three does something a single one never will. These are slim, turned metal stems with a wide, flared foot and a proper cup at the top, in gold, bronze or black, at three graduated heights that step up across a table or a mantelpiece.

They take standard dinner candles, so you can change the whole look of a room for a few pounds by changing the colour of the candles rather than the holders.

They Look Right Long Before Anyone Lights Them

Metal has weight and a highlight, which is what stops candlesticks looking like an afterthought during the day. Grouped on a mantel or down the centre of a dining table, they hold the space perfectly well unlit — and then earn their keep completely at dinner.

Gold, Bronze Or Black

Gold is the warm, celebratory one and the obvious choice for a table set for guests. Bronze is more antique and sits well with wood and old furniture. Black is the graphic option, and the one that suits a modern room with strong lines.

Candlesticks in three graduated heights

Odd Numbers, Different Heights

It is the oldest rule in styling a table and it is the reason a set of three does something a single candlestick never manages. The graduated heights create a line your eye follows along the table instead of a single point it stops at.

They Earn Their Place Unlit

Metal has weight and catches the light, which is what stops candlesticks looking like an afterthought during the day. Grouped on a mantel they hold the space perfectly well without a candle in them at all.

Change The Candles, Change The Room

They take standard dinner candles, so the look shifts entirely with a few pounds of wax. Ivory for a formal table, deep red at Christmas, terracotta or sage for something more contemporary.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size candles do they take?

Standard tapered dinner candles, the kind sold in every supermarket and homeware shop. That is deliberate, because it means you are never hunting for an unusual size to keep them in use.

Are the three the same height?

No, and that is the point. Each set contains three graduated heights so they step up when grouped on a table or a mantel. All three arrive together in the finish you choose.

Are they stable?

The foot is wide and flared and the metal gives them weight low down, which is what keeps a tall candlestick upright. Set them on a level surface and keep them away from the edge of a table with children around.

How do I get the wax off?

Let it cool and harden completely, then lift it out of the cup with your fingers or a blunt edge. Warm water loosens what is left. Avoid scraping with anything sharp, which will mark the finish.

Which finish suits a wedding?

Gold, almost always. It photographs warmly under low light and reads as celebratory. Bronze is the choice for a more rustic or antique setting, and black works for a modern, minimal table.
