A tall white birdcage that turns a single candle into a soft, caged glow.
François is a birdcage candle holder in aged metal, finished in a distressed white with the worn, chalky look of old French garden ironwork. The domed cage sits on a turned base and opens to hold a candle inside, so the light reads through slim white bars.
It stands 49 cm tall on a 15 cm square footprint, slim enough for a console, a mantel, or the end of a dining table. Set a pillar or a glass tealight on the base inside the cage. Candle not included.
Why we love it
- ◆ A birdcage frame, the slim white bars hold a candle inside and throw a patterned light across the table.
- ◆ A worn distressed-white finish, the chalky French country look that suits a faded, lived-in room.
- ◆ Tall and slim at 49 cm, it carries height on a narrow footprint where a wider piece would not fit.
- ◆ A quiet wedding and gift piece, at home on a table setting or wrapped for someone who likes the French look.

How to style it
A few ways to place it.
- Stand it on a console or mantel with a glass tealight inside, see the rest of our candle holders
- Group it with lanterns at different heights for a layered run
- Run a few down a wedding or dinner table with a low arrangement between them
- Keep the candle plain so the white cage stays the feature
Stylist's Tip Drop a glass tealight cup inside the cage so the flame stays enclosed. For a table left lit late, a flameless LED candle gives the same glow without minding it.
Care & Keeping
Dust gently with a soft dry cloth, taking care around the worn edges where the finish is meant to be chipped. Keep it indoors or somewhere fully sheltered, the distressed finish is decorative and is not made for weather. Use a glass cup or plate inside the cage to catch wax.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use it outside?
It is made for indoor or fully covered use. The distressed white finish is decorative and will mark if left out in rain or direct weather.
What candle does it take?
A pillar candle or a glass tealight sits on the base inside the cage. A glass cup is best so the flame stays enclosed. The candle is not included.
How big is it?
It stands 49 cm tall on a 15 cm square base, so it reads as a tall, slim piece rather than a small tabletop holder.
What decor does it suit?
It sits with French provincial, French country, and cottage interiors, and works well on a wedding or event table.
Is each one the same?
The distressed white is applied by hand, so the exact pattern of wear differs from piece to piece. The overall look stays the same as shown.
Because François is hand-finished, slight variations in the distressed white and the worn edges are natural and add to the character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
