The French say that lighting is essential to the character of any room and one of their favourite elements to achieve this <\/span>(besides a <\/span><\/i>chandelier<\/span><\/i><\/a>, of course)<\/span><\/i> is <\/span>candlesticks and candelabra.<\/span> These elegant items of illumination, originally designed for utilitarian purposes, have come full circle to become pieces of <\/span>timeless decor jewellery<\/span><\/a> in any modern home. <\/span><\/h2>\n

Whether antique candelabra and candlesticks are placed on a mantlepiece in the entrance hall, are used to adorn an elaborate dining room table or are styled on a marble or granite top in the bathroom, there\u2019s a perfect spot for one <\/span>(or more)<\/span><\/i> of these decorative accessories in any room of your home.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

If you are looking to add a little irresistible allure and layering to your design story, then antique candelabra or vintage candlesticks <\/strong>are just the ticket.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Drama in the dining room\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

The romantic glow of a timeless <\/span>candelabra <\/span>is the perfect addition when creating an intimate setting and adding instant tablescaping drama. As friends and family gather around, your <\/span>dining room table<\/span><\/a> becomes the perfect setting to display your <\/span>antique candelabra <\/span>showpiece.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Antique<\/p>\n

Antique or vintage candlesticks<\/span> quickly become a simple way of stealing the show in any dining space. Juxtaposed at varying heights, they give a fanciful, playful touch in a more casual setting. To soften a more formal and sophisticated vignette, flank candlesticks on either side of a floral arrangement.<\/span><\/p>\n

Grouping <\/span>candlesticks or candelabra<\/span> on a table or sideboard adds a bold focal point and elaborate drama to a dining room. And placing them at an equal distance from each other brings about a sense of balance to the room.<\/span><\/p>\n

Accents in the entrance hall<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you want to give guests a moment of welcome pause as they enter your home and transport them to a\u00a0 simpler time, then a well-placed <\/span>antique candelabrum<\/span> in your <\/span>entrance hall<\/span><\/a> will achieve this.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While it may be tempting to place<\/span> candelabra <\/span>across your entire home it is always wise to practise a little design restraint and position them in a less cluttered setting where a romantic flourish is needed. <\/span>(These decorative lovelies deserved to be noticed). <\/span><\/i>No matter what your personal preference – <\/span>gilded<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>crystal<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>silver<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>wrought-iron<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>cast-iron<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>brass<\/span><\/a> or <\/span>wooden<\/span><\/a> – we have over 100 <\/span>candlesticks and candelabra <\/span>to choose from.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Antique<\/p>\n

A pair of matching<\/span> candlesticks <\/span>placed on either side of a mantel in the entrance hall creates a functional framework for a circular mirror – giving the space a sense of harmony and balance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Beauty in the bathroom<\/span><\/h2>\n

Bathrooms are fast becoming designer spaces where vintage whimsy and antique items are being highlighted. Cue a collage of <\/span>antique candlesticks <\/span>and silver objets d\u2019 art to create a haven of relaxation. <\/span>(Candles have always been the go-to when scripting a restful and romantic spa-like setting).\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Create a captivating glow as you bask in the tub by scattering<\/span> candlesticks <\/span>around the bath or placing a candelabrum on a <\/span>chest of drawers<\/span><\/a>. These personal touches add warmth, history and charm to an often neglected and traditionally utilitarian space.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
