Renée French Provincial Candle Holder, Antique Gold Horn Candlestick
30-day money back guarantee
Examples of Château Living
A coiled hunting horn in antique gold, holding a single taper above a flared foot.
Renée takes the shape of an old post horn, the kind once carried on coaching routes and hunts across the French countryside. The stem rises from a flared, trumpet-style foot, with a single loop of metal coiled to one side and a small cup at the top for the candle. The finish is antique gold worn over a darker base, mottled and lightly rubbed so the raised edges catch the light.
At 30cm tall it sits on a dining table, a mantel, or a console without crowding what stands beside it. It holds a standard taper or dinner candle, which is not included. Use one on its own, or set it with the taller Arnaud for a matched run down the table.
Why we love it
- ◆ A post-horn silhouette, a quiet nod to French hunting and coaching history that reads as decorative rather than literal.
- ◆ Antique gold over aged metal, with a mottled, lightly worn patina across the foot and the coil.
- ◆ Fits a standard taper, ready to use once you add a candle, no fittings needed.
- ◆ Sold as a single piece, so you can start with one and add the taller size later for a pair.

How to style it
A few ways to place it.
- Cluster it with the taller Arnaud and a couple of shorter holders for staggered candle heights, see the full range of candle holders.
- Raise it on a stack of old books or a small tray to lift it above table clutter.
- Keep the surrounds warm: antique gold sits well against dark timber and deep green.
- Burn unscented tapers at the table so the candlelight leads, not the scent.
Stylist's Tip Two heights look better than two of the same. Place Renée and the taller Arnaud a little apart on a runner, then let one candle burn lower than the other.
Care & Keeping
Dust gently with a soft dry cloth. Keep it dry and indoors, since the antique gold finish can mark if it sits in damp or direct sun for long stretches. Let wax cool fully, then lift any drips away with a soft cloth rather than scraping the finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use it outdoors?
Indoor use is best. The antique gold finish on aged metal can mark in damp or strong sun, so keep it inside or somewhere fully sheltered.
What style of decor does it suit?
French provincial and French country rooms, plus cottage and vintage-leaning spaces. The horn shape and worn gold sit well against dark timber, panelling, and warmer palettes.
How big is it?
It stands 30cm tall on a 15cm base, roughly the height of a wine bottle. At 0.5kg it is light enough to move around the table easily.
Will mine look exactly like the photos?
Each piece is hand-finished, so patina, texture, and the depth of the gold vary a little from one to the next. That variation is part of the look.
Does it include a candle, and is the pair sold together?
No candle is included, and each size is sold on its own. Renée is the shorter 30cm holder; the taller one is listed separately as Arnaud.
Because Renée is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, texture, and the depth of the gold are natural and add to the character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
