Style and usage tips:
• Create an old-fashioned atmosphere at the dinner table by pairing the candlestick with a linen tablecloth and vintage tableware. An ivory-coloured candle allows the silver and brass tones to stand out beautifully.
• Place the candlestick on a dresser or console table as an eye-catching centrepiece. A mirror behind it accentuates its Baroque style and reflects the candlelight, creating an atmospheric glow.
• Pair it with minimalist décor as a thoughtful contrast. The patinated surface adds warmth and depth alongside light wood, ceramics and clean lines.
• Create a personal arrangement with candlesticks of different heights. Silver and brass-toned finds go well together, even if their shapes and periods vary.
• Choose a candle that fits securely in the holder and use a flame-resistant base. An LED candle creates a soft atmosphere on a bookshelf without the risk of an open flame.
