The cake comes out. Everyone leans in.
A solid fir top on a hand-finished magnesia pedestal, worn back at the corners so it reads genuinely old.
Tall enough for a layered cake, so the table has its centrepiece.
A taller, wider pedestal cast in magnesia and topped with solid fir wood, sized for a layered cake, a styled cheese board or a candlelit centrepiece.
Léon is the larger French Provincial cake stand in the same family as Lawrence. A solid fir wood serving disc sits on a sculpted magnesia pedestal, hand-finished in antique white with scrollwork running around the base and chippy paint at the corners where the cast has been worn back to read as genuinely aged.
At 27 cm across and 19.5 cm tall, Léon holds a layered cake, a generous cheese course, a tall cluster of pillar candles or a sculptural floral arrangement with room to spare. He stands 6.5 cm taller than Lawrence and 3 cm wider, which is the difference between a single-tier birthday cake and a styled wedding-cake moment. Paired with Lawrence on a dessert table, the two heights make a complete display without needing a third piece.
Léon and Lawrence TogetherLéon is the larger of two cake stands in the same family. The smaller Lawrence cake stand (24 cm across, 13 cm tall) is sold separately. Used together at staggered heights they make a complete two-tier dessert display. All cakes, candles, blossoms, books and styling props shown in the photographs are not included.
Why we love it
- ◆ Sized up from Lawrence, 27 cm across and 19.5 cm tall gives Léon the presence to anchor a dessert table on his own or hold the top tier of a styled display.
- ◆ Mixed materials done right, a hand-finished magnesia pedestal in antique white with a warm fir wood top, so the stand reads natural rather than precious.
- ◆ Versatile beyond the cake, lifts a cheese board, a fruit display, a candle vignette, a small floral arrangement or a stack of styled books on a coffee table.
- ◆ Pairs with Lawrence, the two heights together make a styled dessert display for engagement parties, high teas, christenings and small weddings without the cost of event hire.

How to style him
Léon is a workhorse pedestal that earns its place beyond the dessert table.
- Lift a two-tier birthday or christening cake and trail eucalyptus or olive branches around the base.
- Pair with the smaller Lawrence cake stand for a two-height dessert display, with Léon holding the main cake and Lawrence the cupcakes.
- Build a generous cheese course with brie, hard cheddar, figs, walnuts, and small ramekins of honey and quince paste.
- Cluster five to seven pillar candles of varying heights for a substantial evening centrepiece, paired with our candle holders.
- Use on a hallway console with a sculptural vase of dried hydrangeas and a stack of art books for a styled vignette.
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 Léon and any moist food. Store indoors away from direct sunlight and heat.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Léon and Lawrence?
Same family, two sizes. Léon is 27 cm across and 19.5 cm tall. Lawrence is 24 cm across and 13 cm tall. Both share the magnesia pedestal, antique white finish and solid fir wood top, so they pair beautifully at staggered heights on a dessert table. Léon is the better choice for a two-tier cake or a substantial cheese course, Lawrence for a single-layer cake or a small candle vignette.
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 27 cm across, so an 8 to 10 inch (20 to 25 cm) round cake sits comfortably with a frame of bare wood showing around the edge. A 12 inch cake will overhang slightly. Léon is the right size for a two-tier wedding cake, a styled christening cake, or a generous birthday cake without the wood disappearing under the icing.
Can I use it outdoors?
Léon 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 strong heat. The fir wood will warp and the antique white finish will lift if left out.
Does each piece look the same?
Léon 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.
Because Léon 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.

Lady Ophelia French Provincial Fairy Statue, Natural Rust Cast Iron 30cm
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.
The Frog Prince French Provincial Frog Statue, Natural Rust Cast Iron 30cm
I got this little figurine as a freebie & it’s pretty cute. Heavy cast metal nice detail to it. He would look great in larger sizes too I think.
Mr Capone French Provincial Terrier Statue in a Bowler Hat, Natural Rust Cast Iron 14.5cm
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.

Guido French Provincial Fleur de Lis Urn Vase, Aged Bronze Finish 43.5cm
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.
