Candle sticks are decorative holders designed to support taper or dinner candles, elevating them safely above surfaces while enhancing visual appeal. In simple terms, they turn an everyday candle into a design feature. Candle sticks can be purely functional, highly ornamental, or a blend of both — adding warmth, ambience and structure to dining tables, consoles, mantels and shelves.
Here’s why Australians love candle sticks: they instantly create atmosphere without electricity, work across every interior style, and offer a timeless way to style both everyday spaces and special occasions. Whether used in pairs, clusters or statement singles, candle sticks bring elegance and mood to any room.
Candle sticks come in a wide range of styles, materials and heights, making them incredibly versatile in Australian homes:

Choosing the right candle sticks is about balancing scale, material, placement and style. Here’s a practical buyer’s guide:

Soft candlelight transforms rooms into warm, inviting spaces.
Candle sticks never go out of style — they adapt across trends and seasons.

Adds elegance to dinner parties, celebrations and festive tables.

In 2025, candle sticks continue to evolve as design-led décor pieces. Key Australian trends include:
Organic curves and abstract forms replace traditional symmetry.
Soft brass, stone-look and powder-coated black dominate interiors.
Clustered candle sticks in varied heights create layered table styling.
Sand, clay, charcoal and muted metallics lead the palette.
Understated shapes with refined finishes feel premium and timeless.
Designs that transition seamlessly from dining room to patio.
These trends show candle sticks becoming statement décor pieces, not just functional holders.
Use these designer tips to style candle sticks beautifully:
Odd numbers (three or five) feel more natural and dynamic.
Pair with vases, trays or books to create visual rhythm.
White for elegance, black for drama, soft neutrals for warmth.
Place at the centre of dining tables or console arrangements.
