Candele

Candle holders are used to safely display candles while adding warmth and atmosphere to a space. In home decor, they are commonly styled on tables, shelves, sideboards, and kitchen islands to introduce soft lighting and decorative interest without overwhelming a room.

A good quality candle holder should feel sturdy, well-finished, and stable when placed on a surface. Materials such as glass and ceramic should be smooth and evenly made, with no sharp edges, cracks, or uneven bases. Weight, balance, and finish are all good indicators of quality.

Glass candle holders reflect light and create a softer, ambient glow, making them ideal for relaxed or modern interiors. Ceramic candle holders tend to feel more solid and sculptural, often chosen as decorative pieces even when not in use with candles. Both can be styled throughout the home depending on the look you prefer.

To remove wax from a candle holder, allow the wax to fully harden, then gently tap or lift it away. For glass or ceramic candle holders, placing them in warm (not boiling) water can help loosen remaining wax, which can then be wiped away with a soft cloth.

Candle holders can be styled throughout the home, including living rooms, dining areas, hallways, and kitchens. Grouping candle holders in pairs or small clusters works well on tables and shelves, while single candle holders can be used as subtle accents on windowsills, sideboards, or kitchen worktops.
