Decorating with candles

A candlelit Christmas

Serve up a feast this holiday season and make it look as good as it tastes.

A table filled with designer candles is an awe-inspiring sight, but even a few strategically placed quality candles can transform a meal into a feast for the eyes. Use candles to add form and texture to a more neutral affair, or go traditional and choose our white, red and green candles for a classic Christmas table. If you’re in the mood, be brave and create a contemporary look with a selection of our modern shapes and pastel colours.

Apart from creating a beautiful setting by adding a decorative element, candles create an intimately festive mood through the light of their flame.

People have always connected through stories, and fire has been a catalyst to share these stories, from the traditional open fire to the modern-day equivalent of sharing a meal by the light of a candle.

We forge bonds, strengthen friendships and reinforce familial ties by sharing; sharing stories, sharing meals, sharing our thoughts and ideas. This shared history brings us closer, and the flame of a candle has always been an invitation and inspiration to do so.

All our candles are made from biodegradable waxes and natural wicks to give the best natural light experience. We’ve left them unscented so you can enjoy the light without having fragrance overpower the natural scents and aromas of your beautifully prepared meal, fine wine or after-dinner espresso.

Choose from our collections of taper and pillar candles in various shapes, sizes and colours to light up your holiday season.
