Provence Home: Hand-Carved Wood Candle Holders

Provence Home candle holders are meticulously hand-crafted from carved wood and finished with aged patina that evokes authentic French countryside farmhouses. Each piece features a Shabby Chic vintage time-worn finish applied by skilled artisans, creating accessories that appear genuinely antique.

Distressed Finishes

The collection offers carved wood holders in Distressed Antiqued ($70 sale), Distressed White and Gold ($236), Distressed Off White with Aged Gold ($154-$195), and Distressed Cream with antiqued metal crown designs ($96). Each finish is hand-applied to create natural-looking wear patterns and subtle color variations.

Carved Wood Construction

Solid wood construction features intricate carving with scrollwork, turned details, and architectural elements executed by skilled craftsmen. The carving process creates depth and shadow that enhance the aged patina finishes. Wood construction provides substantial visual weight appropriate for French country, farmhouse, and traditional interiors.

Crown and Specialty Designs

The Distressed Cream Crown Votive Holder ($96) combines carved wood with antiqued metal crown detailing, perfect for romantic table settings and special occasions. These specialty designs add royal French aesthetic to dining tables, mantels, and bedroom vignettes.

Uttermost: Crystal, Glass, and Metal Designs

Uttermost has crafted quality home accessories since 1975, operating from their Virginia facility. The family-owned company partners with renowned designers to create candle holders that balance artistic vision with functional elegance. Most Uttermost candle holders include candles for immediate display.

Crystal Candle Holders

The Crystal Pillar set of 2 ($363) and Lucian Polished Nickel and Crystal set ($429.60) bring classic elegance with cut crystal elements that refract candlelight throughout the room. The Karun combines charcoal concrete bases with crystal accents ($283) for contemporary contrast. Crystal holders create dramatic sparkle suitable for formal dining and special occasions.

Glass Hurricane Designs

Hurricane candle holders protect flames while creating atmospheric glow. The Shepherd collection offers aged brass with textured glass ($135) and dark bronze with textured glass ($124) hurricane designs. The Fluted Fire features ribbed glass in a set of 2 ($182). The Durga combines matte black iron with glass globes ($342) for modern appeal.

Brass and Gold Metal

Warm metal tones dominate many Uttermost offerings. The Amina Antiqued Brass set of 3 ($388.80) provides graduated heights for dynamic arrangements. The Ruhi Antiqued Gold Iron set of 2 ($156) offers affordable elegance. The Wenman Gold Iron with textured glass triple holder ($172.80) creates centerpiece presence.

Contemporary and Geometric

Modern interiors benefit from the Myah Geometric Globe ($186) with architectural form, the Columnar Matte Black set of 2 ($274) for minimalist appeal, and the Cassiopeia Midnight Blue set of 3 ($256.80) adding color to neutral spaces.

Lanterns and Indoor-Outdoor Designs

Lantern-style candle holders offer protected flames for various settings, from dining tables to covered patios.

Lattice Lantern

The Uttermost Lattice Lantern ($132) is rated for both indoor and outdoor use, making it versatile for dining rooms, covered porches, and garden entertaining. The lattice metalwork creates interesting shadow patterns when candlelight flickers through the openings.

Wenman Lantern Collection

The Wenman Bronze Iron lantern with textured glass ($131) provides warm bronze tones in an enclosed design. Textured glass diffuses light while protecting flames from drafts. The coordinating triple holder ($172.80) in gold creates matching sets for larger spaces.

Riad Collection

The Riad dark bronze single holder ($117.60 sale) and triple holder ($142 sale) offer Moroccan-inspired design with dark bronze finish. These architectural pieces work in global, bohemian, and eclectic interiors seeking distinctive character.

Styling Candle Holders

Strategic placement and grouping transform individual candle holders into cohesive design statements.

Odd Number Groupings

Designers recommend grouping candle holders in odd numbers, typically three or five, for visual interest. Vary heights within groupings to create dynamic arrangements. Sets like the Cassiopeia 3-piece or Amina 3-piece provide pre-coordinated graduated heights for effortless styling.

Mantel Arrangements

Center a statement piece or grouping on the mantel, flanked by smaller accessories. Carved wood Provence Home holders suit traditional and farmhouse mantels, while Uttermost crystal and metal designs complement contemporary fireplaces. Leave breathing room between pieces rather than crowding.

Dining Table Centerpieces

Low candle holders work best on dining tables to maintain sight lines for conversation. Place holders along the table center in odd number groupings, or use a single substantial piece like the Wenman triple holder. Hurricane styles protect flames from movement and drafts during dinner parties.

Mixed Materials

Combine materials thoughtfully within a single vignette. Pair carved wood with antiqued metal for French country warmth, or mix crystal with brass for transitional elegance. Maintain color palette cohesion even when mixing textures and materials.

Candle Safety and Care

Safe Burning Practices

Never leave burning candles unattended. Keep candles away from flammable materials including curtains, bedding, and paper. Place holders on stable, heat-resistant surfaces. Trim wicks to one-quarter inch before each use to prevent excessive flame height and soot. Extinguish candles when two inches of wax remains to prevent heat damage to holders.

Caring for Carved Wood

Dust Provence Home carved wood holders regularly with soft, dry cloth. Avoid water or cleaning solutions that could damage wood finish or remove intentional distressing. For stubborn dust in carved details, use soft brush or compressed air. The aged patina finish is permanent and will not wear with normal use.

Caring for Crystal and Glass

Wipe crystal and glass elements with soft cloth dampened with glass cleaner. Polish dry with lint-free cloth to prevent water spots. Remove wax drips promptly before they harden. For stubborn wax, place holder in freezer briefly to make wax brittle for easy removal, then clean with warm soapy water.

Caring for Metal Finishes

Dust brass, bronze, and iron holders with soft dry cloth. Antiqued finishes are intentionally aged and should not be polished to brightness. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage patina. For stubborn wax on metal, use warm water and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals that could strip finish.
