Melanie Monstera Leaf Pillar Candle Holder, Antique Gold Botanical Decor
30-day money back guarantee
Examples of Château Living
The smaller leaf of the pair, a pierced monstera in antique gold around a single pillar candle.
Melanie is the smaller of the two monstera leaf candle holders, with a pierced leaf raised behind a pillar candle dish. The leaf is cut along its veins and lobes in aged metal, set on a slim stem above a fluted pedestal base, with a small dish at the front for the candle. The finish is antique gold worn over a darker base, mottled across the leaf so light catches the raised grain.
It stands 29cm tall and 18.5cm wide, a step down from the larger Cleo and easy to slot onto a smaller shelf or table. The dish holds a standard pillar candle, which is not included. Use it on its own, or set it in front of Cleo so the two leaf heights layer together.
Why we love it
- ◆ The smaller of the leaf pair, a monstera shape that fits a tighter shelf or bedside without crowding it.
- ◆ Antique gold over aged metal, mottled and lightly worn across the leaf, dish, and fluted base.
- ◆ Holds a standard pillar candle, ready to use as soon as you add one, with a dish to catch drips.
- ◆ Pairs with the larger Cleo, so the two read as a set or stand apart in separate spots.

How to style it
A few ways to place it.
- Set it in front of the larger Cleo for two leaf heights, see the full range of candle holders.
- Stand it where the cut-out leaf has a wall or dark surface behind it, so the pierced pattern shows.
- Use a cream or ivory pillar candle to match the photos, or a darker shade for contrast.
- Keep a tray underneath to catch any stray wax.
Stylist's Tip Two leaf heights look better than one. Put Melanie in front of the taller Cleo, slightly off to one side, so both leaves and both flames stay visible.
Care & Keeping
Dust gently with a soft dry cloth, working into the cut-outs with a dry brush if needed. Keep it dry and indoors, since the antique gold finish can mark in damp or direct sun. Let wax cool fully before lifting it off the dish.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use it outdoors?
Indoor use is best. The antique gold finish on aged metal can mark in damp or strong sun, so keep it inside or somewhere fully sheltered.
What size candle does it take?
A standard pillar candle sits on the front dish. A wider, lower pillar of around 7 to 8cm looks best and keeps the flame below the top of the leaf. Candle not included.
What style of decor does it suit?
French country, vintage, and botanical-leaning rooms. The leaf shape and worn gold work against dark timber, panelling, and warm palettes.
How big is it?
It stands 29cm tall and 18.5cm wide, the smaller of the pair. At 0.34kg it is light to move and reposition.
Will mine look exactly like the photos?
Each piece is hand-finished, so patina, texture, and the depth of the gold vary a little from one to the next. That variation is part of the look.
Because Melanie is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, texture, and the depth of the gold are natural and add to the character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
