# Gothic home decor > Try a skull trinket dish, a dragon figurine, a pressed flower glass candle holder or a wooden candle holder sign. Mix skulls, figurines and candles for a gothic room. - Published by Holistic Tree: 2026-10-23; last reviewed 2026-10-23 - URL: https://holistictree.co.uk/guides/gothic-home-decor ## Key points - Pick a Lucifly or Nemesis Now dragon figurine for a bold centrepiece; the Nemesis Now piece is 25 cm, so it needs a bigger shelf. - Choose the Edgar Allan Poe Raven Skull Trinket Dish for book lovers, since its engraved passages come from The Raven. - Use the Vintage Dinner Candle Holder in antique amber for supper or a candle ritual, as it holds one tall taper candle. - Go for the Iron Ball votive holder as a centrepiece, 11 cm long, 11 cm wide and 8.5 cm high, with one glass cup. - Over £60 we pay the first £6 of delivery on most orders, so one ordinary parcel travels free. ## How did we choose these picks? We hand-picked every gift in this guide from the range we stock. Each one was chosen for who it suits and what it does, so you can match a piece to the room and the person you are shopping for. We also aimed for a mix of kinds and budgets. You will find candle holders, dark figurines, skull decor and pressed flower glass here, so you can start small with one candle holder or build a full gothic display over time. Want to see more?
