Best Candle Holders 2020: Glass, Wood and More

Burning love! Create an ambient glow at home with these stylish and cosy candle holders

s we head into autumn/winter, there's nothing nicer - or cosier - than lighting a candle or two; that soft-focus glow is warming, snuggly, romantic and ambient.

As well as creating all the hygge vibes for cosy nights in, candles are also fantastic for making a warm and welcoming space for guests, whether placed at the dining table or dotted around the room for that low-glow, dim-light finish.

Stylish candle stick holders will ensure your atmospheric lighting has a super-chic place to sit. And during the day time when the candles aren't burning, an aesthetically-pleasing holder can act as a statement style piece all on its own.

From a taste of the tropics with decorative brass palm trees, to industrial-style cement pieces, we’ve rounded up the most stylish candle stick holders below for a cool but warm winter.

You don't need to jet off halfway around the work for an exotic vibe. Simply add this leopard relaxing in the shade of a palm tree to your home for those warming far-flung feels. Perfect for a tropical table setting, it's beautiful as a standalone piece and even prettier with a flickering candle emitting its soft light above.
