Where you place modern candle holders is as important as what kind you use in your most popular space.
In our living room we have one of our favorite candle holders on our hearth. This piece rarely gets lighted, it's really just a decorative accent, but its wood composition, clean shape, and metal stand complement the stone fireplace very well.
Another place we use one is on our coffee table. We have a copper colored tray with a sleek artificial flower arrangement on one side and our candle holder on the other side. The contrast works well. However, you shouldn't light a candle that sits next to any kind of flammable material.
Time to see some examples of modern candle holders. Enjoy...

Take a look at the Wooden Pillar Holder Set from Wrapables.com. You can certainly see some Asian influence in this item but the square shape grounds it firmly in modern design.

Perhaps you'll find the On The Ball from UncommonGoods.com intriguing. Squares are a pillar of modern design, but so are round shapes. We tend to associate romance with the more rounded shapes so this item could be a great fit in your modern romantic living room.

This is the Three Piece Gillian Candleholder and Vase Set from Bellacor.com. We really like the sexy shape, which gives it a modern feel. However, this item is versatile because of the rich bronze color and casual appearance.

We saved the best for last, the Glo Mesh Candleholder from Wrapables.com. Great color, beautiful texture with the mesh and very romantic.
The mesh goes especially well on your hearth if you have a iron and mesh fireplace screen.
A modern candle holder is a great way to bring romance to your living room. Use their clean lines and sleek design with warm colors to create real ambiance.
These candle work well on tables or your hearth. Be sure to accent them with metal trays, plates on stands, or artificial greenery.
Enjoy the romance these wonderful candle holders bring to your living room.
