Lara French Provincial Dragonfly Candlestick Set, Aged Gold Metal
30-day money back guarantee
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.

How to style it
Two heights give you a built-in arrangement.
- Stand the pair on a mantel beside other candle holders
- 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.
