30-day money back guarantee
Examples of Château Living
A turned-timber column lifting a single pillar candle on an aged metal dish.
Jean is a pillar candle holder turned from fir timber, finished in a white-rubbed distress over the natural grain. A stacked baluster column stands on a square foot and is topped with a dark aged-metal dish that holds a pillar candle, a quiet contrast against the pale timber.
It stands 33.5 cm tall, the shorter of the pair, sized for a console, a mantel, or the centre of a table. Set a cream pillar on the metal dish and pair it with the taller Jacques for a stepped set, or stand it alone. Candle not included.
Why we love it
- ◆ Turned fir timber with a white-rubbed distress, the painted-then-worn look of old French furniture.
- ◆ A dark aged-metal dish on top, a quiet contrast against the pale timber that holds a pillar steady.
- ◆ Compact at 33.5 cm, the shorter of the two, easy to slot on a smaller table or beside taller pieces.
- ◆ Made to pair, stepped beside the taller Jacques or used on its own.

How to style it
A few ways to place it.
- Pair it with the taller Jacques for a stepped set, see the rest of our candle holders
- Group pillars at mixed heights down a dining or console run
- Stand one on a stack of books or a tray for a quiet vignette
- Keep the candle cream or ivory so the pale timber stays the feature
Stylist's Tip A cream or ivory pillar suits the pale timber best. Keep it a stub or mid-height pillar so the column stays in proportion. A flameless LED skips wax on the dish.
Care & Keeping
Dust with a soft dry cloth. It is timber, so keep it indoors away from damp and direct sun so it does not dry out or fade. Burn the candle on the metal dish and let wax cool before lifting it, or use a flameless LED to keep the timber clean.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is it made of?
A turned fir-timber column with a dark aged-metal dish on top. The white finish is a hand-rubbed distress over the natural grain.
What candle does it take?
A standard pillar candle sits on the metal dish. A stub or mid-height pillar keeps the column in proportion. The candle is not included.
Does it come as a pair?
Jean is the shorter of two sizes and is sold on its own. The taller Jacques is listed separately if you want the stepped pair.
Can I use it outside?
It is made for indoor use. Timber will swell, dry, or fade if left outdoors or in damp.
Will mine look like the photos?
The white-rubbed distress and the timber grain are different on every piece, so yours will vary a little from the photos. That is the aged look, not a fault.
Because Jean is hand-finished, slight variations in the white-rubbed distress and the timber grain are natural and add to the character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
