This turned wooden candlestick comes off a lathe, so its outline has the soft, rounded steps of turned wood instead of the hard edges of cast metal. Wood is warm to hold in a way brass or chrome never is, it will not tarnish, and it never needs polishing. It takes a standard taper candle, meaning no odd size to track down.

On a dining table set with wooden boards, stoneware and linen napkins, a wooden taper candle holder joins the group where metal would cut across it. On the mantel a pair does the same against a painted wall. For wedding table decor the small size keeps sightlines open between guests, while the large belongs on a mantel or a sideboard. Run both sizes down the table for movement, or stick to one for a calmer line.

The material is wood, in small or large; two or four together set a whole table. Dust them with a dry cloth; hardened wax drips come off with a damp cloth, then dry. Never soak the wood or let it sit on a wet surface. Burning has one firm rule: a taper in a wooden holder is never left unattended and never burned down to the base, so snuff it while a finger's width of candle remains.

Turned Wooden Candlesticks, Natural Wood Taper Candle Holders for Dining Table, Mantel and Wedding Decor, Small or Large

Why it earns its place

Turned, not cast

Shaped on a lathe from wood, so the profile has the rounded steps of a turned piece rather than the hard edges of metal.

Standard tapers

Takes a standard taper candle, the kind sold everywhere, so you are never hunting for a special size.

Small or large

Two sizes. Mix them down the table for a bit of movement, or keep to one size for a calmer line.

In your home

On a dining table already laid with wooden boards, linen napkins and stoneware, a wooden candlestick joins the group instead of cutting across it the way brass or chrome would. A pair on the mantel does the same job against a painted wall and a wooden frame.

For a wedding table the small size keeps sightlines clear across the guests; the large earns its place on a mantel or a sideboard. One real evening: two tapers on the kitchen table with a plain cloth, and the room needs nothing else.

Materials and quality

Wood, turned on a lathe, which is why the shape reads as a candlestick and not a dowel with a hole in it. Wood has a warmth in the hand that metal never has, and it does not tarnish or need polishing. The holder is sized for a standard taper candle, so there is nothing special to source. It is a simple object, and the price reflects that; buy two or four and set a whole table.

Care and everyday use

Dust with a dry cloth; a damp cloth for wax drips once they have set hard, then dry. Do not soak wood or leave it on a wet surface. The main rule is about burning: never let a taper burn down to the base in a wooden holder, and never leave it burning unattended. Snuff it with a finger's width of candle left.
