15 gorgeous candle holders for everything from stylish shelves to table centrepieces

I don’t know about you, but I am absolutely flying through candles at the moment. It feels like a small but important comfort when the darkness settles in earlier and earlier. 

As it approaches around 4pm, I light a scented candle at my desk, a tealight or two on the table makes dinner feel more of a moment to savour, and before I sit down in the living room, there’s a series of candles on various shelves that have to be lit. 

Gorgeous candle holders only add further to this small pleasure, adding beauty to your space throughout the day. There are so many great Irish interiors retailers with plenty of gorgeous designs to choose from: here are some of our favourites.
