Elliott French Provincial Wire Cage Candle Lantern, Weathered Grey Aged Metal with Glass Sleeve
30-day money back guarantee
Examples of Château Living
Clear glass holds the flame, a weathered wire grid holds the glass, and the candlelight does the rest.
Elliott is a tall hurricane lantern that sets a clear glass sleeve inside a welded wire grid. The frame and cap are built from aged metal in a weathered grey finish, chalky and softly worn, with a pierced band below the domed top, a teardrop finial and a ring handle. A clear glass sleeve holds the candle, and the grid lays a soft shadow over the glow.
At 49 cm it is the taller of the two sizes, a centre-of-the-table or end-of-the-mantel piece. Stand it on a console, a hearth or a covered outdoor table, on its own or beside the shorter version for a graduated pair. The clear glass keeps the flame steady, so it carries to a sheltered verandah on a still night.
Why we love it
- ◆ Soft caged glow, the wire grid lays a faint shadow over the candlelight for a worn, lived-in look.
- ◆ Aged metal in weathered grey, chalky and hand-finished, the kind of grey that sits with stone, timber and linen.
- ◆ Clear glass sleeve, it shields the flame and lifts out so you can drop in a pillar candle or a battery LED.
- ◆ One of a pair, set it with the shorter size for graduated heights, or let it stand alone on a mantel.

How to style it
It earns its place anywhere a soft, low light belongs.
- Set a pair on a mantel with the rest of our lanterns for graduated heights.
- Run it down a table with other candle holders for a relaxed tablescape.
- Stand it in an entryway beside a mirror to spread the glow.
- Carry it out to a covered patio, alongside our garden and outdoor pieces.
Stylist's Tip Use a cream or ivory pillar candle rather than bright white. The warm wax tone reads beautifully against the grey grid and clear glass, and a flameless LED gives the same glow with none of the soot.
Care & Keeping
Dust gently with a soft dry cloth, and lift out the glass sleeve to wash it clear of soot now and then. Keep the metal dry; the weathered grey finish is chalky by design, so wipe rather than scrub. Indoors or under cover outdoors is best, since steady damp will mark the finish over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use Elliott outside?
Indoors is its natural home, but it is fine on a covered verandah or patio out of direct rain and wind. Bring it in over wet spells so the weathered grey finish stays as it is.
What style of room does it suit?
French Provincial, French country and cottage rooms first. The grey grid and clear glass also suit farmhouse, coastal and warm modern interiors.
How big is Elliott?
It stands 49 cm tall on a 14.8 cm round base, about the height of a tall vase. It is the taller of two sizes in this design; the smaller one is 44 cm.
Will mine look exactly like the photos?
Close, not identical. Each lantern is hand-finished, so the depth of the weathered grey and the small marks differ a little piece to piece. That is part of the look, not a fault.
Does it make a good gift?
Yes. At a friendly size and price it suits a housewarming or a wedding, and it is ready to use with your own pillar candle or a flameless LED. The candle is not included.
Because Elliott is hand-finished, slight variations in the weathered grey finish are natural and part of the character of each lantern. Colour may also vary slightly between screens; all photography is taken in natural light.
