"Once a necessity for those toiling away after hours, the best candelabras now mostly serve a decorative purpose: as an extra boost of ambiance or moodiness to your carefully curated tablescape or console table. Monochromatic taper candles are an easy way to complement your dinnerware, or you can dial up the contrast with a cherry-picked accent color (or two!) to draw the eye toward your well-set table."
"A bestseller from Brooklyn-based studio SIN Ceramics, the Weylyn candelabra boasts an undulating form with slots for six candles. The silhouette feels undeniably modern while the varied heights give each taper room to shine. The creamy white hue is ideal for those who want to mix and match with colors, while the all-black version feels delightfully gothic with a monochrome candle display."
Candelabras have shifted from functional lighting to decorative accents that enhance ambiance and mood on tablescapes and console tables. Monochromatic tapers provide subtle coordination with dinnerware while contrasting accent colors draw attention to a well-set table. Designs span modern undulating forms with multiple slots, hand-carved ceramic pieces with artisanal character, and verdigris-finish metal forms that mimic vintage patina. Varied heights and finishes let each taper stand out and complement different aesthetics, from Regency charm to midcentury glamour. Adding a candelabra can elevate hosting presence and create a memorable focal point for holiday gatherings.
