Long after they ceased to be a necessity, candles are as popular as ever, but today it is because there is nothing that compares with the flickering natural beauty of candlelight.

The Anthem candle holder is precisely the kind of reimagining you would expect from Liang and Eimil, eschewing the pillars, collars and spikes of many more familiar styles.

They have opted instead for this intensely elegant single-piece design with echoes of natural woodland forms and supplicant, devotional palms.

Three stems curve upwards to cradle the candles, and the polished brass finish gives the piece a golden radiance even before a single wick is lit.
