    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is a candle stick used for?

     A candle stick is a holder designed to support a candle, commonly used on dining tables, mantels, consoles and other decorative surfaces. At Eleish Van Breems Home, we source candle sticks in a range of shapes and styles suited to individual display or larger arrangements, with further options available in our candlesticks & candle holders collection.

    What height of candle stick suits a dinner table?

     The right candle stick height for a dinner table depends on the table size, seating arrangement and overall look you want to create. Taller styles can add height and presence to a setting, while shorter designs create a lower, more intimate profile. Our team often recommends pairing candle sticks with a coordinating candle stick holder to create a considered and cohesive arrangement.

    How do I arrange candle sticks on a mantel?

    Arrange candle sticks on a mantel by combining different heights, shapes or sizes to create visual interest. Our team often groups several pieces together or places them at opposite ends of the mantel for a balanced look, and a brass candlestick can add a distinctive decorative accent to the arrangement.

    How should I care for a candle stick?

     Care requirements for a candle stick can vary depending on its finish. Keep it clean and free from leftover wax after use, avoid abrasive cleaning methods or products unsuitable for the particular surface, and follow any care guidance provided for the individual piece. Pairing your candle stick with appropriately sized candles can also help prevent wax overflow and make care easier.
