DETAILS & SIZE
A dragonfly paused mid-flight on the stem, two heights to light a table.
Lara is a set of two dragonfly candlesticks in aged gold metal, one at 26.5 cm and one at 33.5 cm. A moulded dragonfly rests on each slim stem with its wings open, above a foot shaped like overlapping lotus petals. The dished cup at the top takes a standard pillar candle.
The two heights sit together as a pair, taller behind shorter, for a stepped run of candlelight down a mantel or dinner table. The broad lotus foot keeps each one steady with a pillar in place. Use them indoors, or on a covered table out of the weather.
Why we love it
◆A nature motif with polish, the dragonfly and lotus foot bring a French country garden indoors without tipping into rustic.
◆Aged gold metal, the antiqued gilt finish catches candlelight and warms a dark surface or the wall behind it.
◆Two heights, one set, the 26.5 cm and 33.5 cm pair step naturally for a centrepiece, with no guesswork matching sizes.
◆An easy gift, a pair of candlesticks suits a housewarming or a wedding table, and they store flat between seasons.
Run them down a dinner table with a low bowl of blooms between
Group them with a small vase on a console against a dark wall so the gold lifts
Match the pillar candle colour to your table linen for a pulled-together look
Stylist's Tip
Burn pillars of slightly different heights in the two holders. The mismatch reads intentional and keeps the two flames from sitting in a flat line.
Care & Keeping
Wipe with a soft dry cloth, and lift any wax drips off the cup once they cool rather than scraping them warm. Keep the metal dry; these are made for indoors or a covered table, not open weather. Never leave a burning candle unattended, and flameless LED pillars give the same glow with none of the wax.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use Lara outside?
Best kept indoors or on a covered table. The aged metal is not sealed for open weather and will mark in rain, so treat the pair as an interior piece you can carry out for a sheltered evening.
What rooms suit them?
French Provincial, French country and cottage settings most of all. The dragonfly motif also lands well in nature-led and transitional rooms that want a little ornament on the mantel or table.
How big are they?
The pair stands 26.5 cm and 33.5 cm tall on an 11 cm base. Each cup takes a standard pillar candle of roughly 7 to 8 cm wide.
Is this one candlestick or two, and are candles included?
You receive both candlesticks as a set, the 26.5 cm and the 33.5 cm. Candles are styling only and not included.
Will the pair look identical?
Each candlestick is hand-finished, so the depth of the gold and the patina shift slightly between the two and from set to set. That variation belongs to the aged look. A boxed pair also makes an easy gift.
Because Lara is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, texture, and grain are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.

I have never been a clock-watcher, but all that changed with Maude. I can't stop looking at her. Out of the box, slip in an AA battery and on to the wall, just like that! She is simply gorgeous.
This is a present for my horse loving daughter in law. I'm sure it will take pride of place on her mantle piece. Again I love this Web site which I will be visiting often.
Found this beautiful elegant Swan for my garden online via a search at Chateau Living. A great price, quality and excellent ordering and delivery. Would definitely purchase from this business again. They have such a beautiful variety of products.
It was my testing the waters first purchase to check out this new store & what’s on offer. I loved the idea of supplying cast iron cute animal figurines as they’re practical, good looking, solid durable material, great rust finish (no need to buy expensive rust effect paint). Just ready to weather and brings a smile on your dial. I placed my frog with his hands up as if in religious praying gesture next to the concrete funny sign scored at Vinnies reading: grant me patience Lord but hurry - I believe the praying frog and the sign go comically together. I’m thinking of getting the other frog too in its hilarious pose possibly in green patina for contrast. I can confirm it’s heavy cast iron with attractive rust patina. These casts fill the gap in the market dominated by laser cut cortina steel offerings. Just something old school different and complimentary to your garden /house decor. Pleased it’s introduced to Australian market and once for change not made in China… but in France known for its cast iron tradition. We own 18th century French anvil won at an antique auction which is our proud possession so happy to score more in heavy casts.
This may not show on the store website that well but they’re actually old gold colour. It’s lightweight thin metal so perhaps inside or sheltered outdoor space would suit them the best as it may rust out & some fragile parts of the tail break exposed to the weather. They’re as large as described, cleverly designed for packaging - legs are separate with tightening screw. They make an impact due to their size & fit almost any decor with the colour & style.
I was so happy with Chateau Living. Brilliant customer service & speedy delivery. How lucky we are to have an Australian option giving us all these beautiful items for our homes. Highly recommend
I bought this piece as I could see it in my mind's eye having an suspended impact with my high end Brazilian quartz crystal display. Such a well made piece, sturdy and if I didn't know better, from another time. I am planning a candle holder from Chateau Living to complete this display, just having trouble deciding from the elegant range they have available. Very pleased :) Who would have thought you could combine Brazil with French Provincial so perfectly.
