A footed pedestal that lifts a single tier of cupcakes, a wheel of brie, or the candle that catches the evening light.
Lawrence is a small French Provincial cake stand built for everyday use and special tables alike. A solid fir wood serving disc sits on a sculpted magnesia pedestal, finished by hand in antique white with soft scroll detail running around the base.
At 24 cm across and 13 cm tall, it lifts a single-layer cake, a few cupcakes, a brie and crackers board, or a cluster of pillar candles. The fir top brings warm grain against the off-white pedestal, so the stand reads natural rather than precious.
Why we love it
- ◆ Mixed materials done right, with a solid fir wood top set on a hand-finished magnesia pedestal for warmth against the antique white
- ◆ Versatile beyond the cake, perfect for a cheese course, a fruit display, a candle vignette, or a small floral arrangement
- ◆ The right size for real homes, generous enough to anchor a dining table without dominating a kitchen bench
- ◆ Wedding and event ready, an affordable hire alternative for engagement parties, high teas, christenings and small celebrations

How to style it
Lawrence is a workhorse pedestal that earns its place beyond the dessert table.
- Lift a single-tier birthday or wedding cake and trail eucalyptus around the base
- Build a cheese board with a wheel of brie, figs, walnuts, and a small ramekin of honey
- Cluster three pillar candles of varying heights for a warm evening centrepiece
- Pair with the taller Matthew Cake Stand for a two-height dessert display
- Use as a bathroom catch-all for perfume bottles, a small candle, and folded face cloths
Stylist's Tip Always slip a doily, baking paper round, or cake board between the fir top and anything wet or greasy. The wood is sealed but oils, butter creams, and acidic fruit juices will stain over time.
Care & Keeping
Wipe both the wood top and magnesia pedestal with a soft dry cloth, or a barely damp cloth followed by an immediate dry. Do not immerse in water and not dishwasher safe, as moisture will swell the fir grain and lift the antique white finish on the base. Use a doily or cake board between Lawrence and any moist food. Store indoors away from direct sunlight and heat.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the fir wood top food safe?
The fir top is sealed and safe for general cake, fruit, and cheese display when used with a doily, cake board, or baking paper underneath. We recommend a barrier for anything moist, oily, or acidic to keep the grain looking new.
What size cake fits on top?
The disc is 24 cm across, so a 6 to 8 inch (15 to 20 cm) round cake sits comfortably with a frame of bare wood showing around the edge. A 10 inch cake will overhang slightly. For wedding cakes, Lawrence works best as a stand for a small upper tier or a styled cutting cake.
Can I use it outdoors?
Lawrence is designed for indoor use. He can sit on a covered outdoor table for a short event in fine weather, but bring him inside before dew, rain, or heavy heat. The fir wood will warp and the antique white finish will lift if left out.
Does each piece look the same?
Lawrence is hand-finished, so subtle variations in the antique white patina, the scroll detail, and the natural fir grain are part of the character. No two pieces are identical.
How heavy is he?
900 g net. Solid enough to feel stable and lift a cake without wobbling, light enough to move from kitchen to table without two hands.
Because Lawrence is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, scroll detail, and fir wood 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.
