A pair of plain yet elegant silver-plated candlesticks. They’ll compliment any room in subtlety and style – as a good butler should.

“When working in darkness, a butler needs a candlestick! Not a lantern, no, a candle is what’s proper.” Carson thought to himself, as he held his candle to the labels in the Master’s wine cellar.

It would be prudent for every British home to come equipped with a couple of candlesticks; sneaking downstairs for a late-night bowl of cereal never felt so special. The sleek, simplistic design of these pieces means they’re some of the most versatile candlesticks in the world. They’ll fit in anywhere, making them an ideal gift for someone who has everything.

JJ recommends switching up where you keep these depending on the occasion. Use on the desk while you’re working, move to the entryway to welcome guests, then sneakily lay the table with them once everyone’s gone through to the sitting room! Alternatively, add a romantic plume of candlelight to your dinner tray for the perfect meal-for-one.
