Marcus Olive Branch Candle Holder, Aged Metal Pillar Candle Centrepiece

An olive branch in aged metal, holding three pillar candles along its length.

Marcus is shaped as an olive branch laid along the table, in aged metal with a dark, aged finish. Three plates rise from the branch at staggered heights to hold pillar candles, with a small dish set among the olives and leaves for a tealight or a few loose stems. The metal is mottled and lightly worn, with the olives and narrow leaves cast along the stem.

It spreads about 28cm wide, low enough to sit down the centre of a table without blocking the view across it. The three plates take standard pillar candles, which are not included, and the dish suits a tealight or a small sprig. Run it down a dinner table, along a mantel, or across a console.

Why we love it

• ◆ An olive branch laid along the table, with olives and leaves cast into the metal for a Mediterranean feel.
• ◆ Three candle plates at staggered heights, so the pillars sit at different levels rather than in a flat row.
• ◆ A small dish among the branches, for a tealight, a sprig, or a few olives of your own.
• ◆ Aged metal with a dark, worn finish, mottled along the stem and plates.

How to style it

A few ways to place it.

• Run it down the centre of a dinner table with three matching pillar candles, see the full range of candle holders.
• Keep the candles low and wide so the flames stay below eye level across the table.
• Drop a tealight or a few olives in the side dish to echo the branch.
• Pair it with greenery or a bowl of fruit for a relaxed table.

Care & Keeping

Dust gently with a soft dry cloth, working along the leaves and olives. Keep it dry and indoors, since the aged finish can mark in damp or direct sun. Let wax cool before lifting it off the plates.

Because Marcus is hand-finished, slight variations in finish, texture, and the depth of colour are natural and add to the character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
