Laëtitia Tall Floor Candelabra, Distressed Cream French Country Candle Holder

A tall floor candelabra in distressed cream, nine arms of taper candles.

Laëtitia is a tall floor candelabra in aged metal, finished in distressed cream worn back to a darker base. Slim curved arms sweep out in two tiers from a turned central stem, each ending in a small cup for a taper candle, and the whole piece stands on a stepped square base. It reads as a found, vintage piece rather than something new.

It stands 87cm tall and 39cm across, a floor-standing or large table piece for an entrance, a mantel run, or a wedding and event table. The cups take standard taper candles, which are not included. At this height it works as a statement on its own.

Why we love it

• ◆ A tall floor candelabra, 87cm high, a statement rather than a tabletop piece.
• ◆ Nine cups across two tiers, for a full bank of taper candles.
• ◆ Distressed cream finish, worn back to a darker base for a vintage, shabby chic look.
• ◆ A stepped square base, anchoring the slim stem for a floor-standing piece.

How to style it

A few ways to place it.

• Stand it on the floor by an entry, a fireplace, or beside a dining table, see the full range of candle holders.
• Mix taper colours, cream, blush, and peach as in the photos, or keep them all one shade.
• Use it for a wedding or event, then bring it home afterwards.
• Pair it with loose vases of flowers at its base for a French country corner.

Care & Keeping

Dust gently with a soft dry cloth. The distressed cream finish is worn by design, so handle it as a vintage piece. Keep it dry and indoors, and let wax cool before lifting it from the cups. Given its height, stand it where it will not be knocked.

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