I have been on the hunt for a set of candlestick holders for the house for almost two years! I debated between black and brass finishes and wanted two sets of three in varying heights and in an elegant-yet-simple design. I looked at a variety of options and every other brass set’s finish was too “bright” and shiny, too flimsy, or too ornate (or all three!). This beautiful set ended up being the perfect solution! I do love the classic iron set as well, but I think we’ll get more use out of the brass ones in our house. LTKHome LTKHoliday
