Decorative Pillar Candles – The perfect mantel partners

Let simple light speak the language of purity and beauty at home or even at your workplace. Choose from choice decorative candle pillars to create an ambience of tranquillity, romance, fun or elegance – depending on what your mood for the day is. Barren mantles – be it a table top, a console, the top of a music rack or even that grand beauty of a baby piano, can be made to look beckoning with the timeless pieces of beauty. 

Decorative pillars candles are excellent for wide mantels that are prominently displayed in rooms frequents by our guests. Private rooms of our home such as the master bedroom and attached power-cum-bathroom are more suitable for scented and simple candles. But when you have to decorate those large walnut, mahogany or teak cabinets and tables at home that are used in the living room, dining room, entertainment den, library or the foyer, then indulge in embellished candle pillars.

A pillar for all tops

Don’t let those narrow surfaces feel abandoned! Make the arrangement pretty by adding artificial silk flowers with little beads, or on festive occasions with little bells or glittering ribbons, and never let the table look starkly abandoned.

Multi-coloured candle pillars arranged in a set of three or five of increasing heights are also quite popular now-a-days. These pillars would look better in rooms with bright color schemes so that none of the shades in the pillars would create in disharmony in the room’s appearance. Make your living room with bright cushions and paintings look even more appealing such candles. You can also go for pillars placed in a metallic box in deep shades such as wine or bronze on tables of very dark brown hues.

Those carved beauties

One of the most beautiful sights to behold in terms of candle pillars would be carved candles. Made out of imported wax, these candles have Celtic, Medieval or Indian motifs etched on the candle’s surface that add charm to the pillars. They last for a long time too making them perfect companions for quieter rooms such as the library or rooms with dainty furniture made out of wicker or cane.

Waxy treasure in a box

Candle pillars may be plain but when they are placed in boxes or cylinders with embellishments or designs on them, they look very attractive. So you have a utilitarian accessory that lasts for a long time and in which you can change the candle when the need arises. So if you are a lover of jute and you have decorative screens and cushions covers made out of them, match the room’s décor by buying candle pillars that have the exterior coated with coloured jute. Popular shades are grey, white, orange and blue in this variety.

Candle pillars can be cylindrical or boxy, can be plain or carved or with embellishments on them in the form of metal clasps and bands of print. Depending on the mantel that you wish to decorate and the rest of the room’s appearance, you will surely find pillars of your choice easily.
