Candle Shade Carriers & Dining Candles

Candle shade carriers are the brass or silver frames that hold a candle shade over a dinner candle and lower it as the candle burns. We sell standard carriers in brass and silver, candle-bulb and tea-light carriers, and ivory dining candles in 10 and 12 inch lengths.

Carriers keep the shade at the right height so the card stays clear of the flame throughout the evening. Choose brass for warmth or silver to match silverware, and pair them with any shade in our range.

Frequently asked questions

What is a candle shade carrier?

Most of our shades sit on a candle shade carrier, a brass or silver frame that rests on the candle and lowers the shade as the candle burns. Carriers are available for candle bulbs and tea lights too.

Which candles fit the carriers?

Use our ivory dining candles, available in 10 and 12 inch lengths, which are made to work with our shade carriers.

Can I use candle shades on electric candle bulbs?

Yes. Use the candle-bulb carrier, which fits over a candle-style bulb in a chandelier or wall light.
