“Los Ángeles” Long Christmas Centrepiece with Four Candles and Angels

Because of the two little golden angels tucked in among the branches beside the candles: in Spanish, “los ángeles” simply means “the angels”. It has nothing to do with the city in California. Our shop is in Palma and our deliveries stay on Mallorca, but you can place the order from Los Angeles, London or anywhere else, as long as the person receiving it is on the island.

Approximately 70 cm long and 45 cm wide. Being handmade, each one can differ slightly from the next. It is the longest of our Christmas centrepieces, made to run along the middle of a large dining table rather than sit there like a small island.

It looks its best on long rectangular or oval tables. Before ordering, measure yours: besides the 70 cm of the centrepiece, you will want room for plates and serving dishes on either side. For a smaller table, look at the L-size Christmas centrepiece (three candles, dried fruit) or the rustic rectangular centrepiece, lit with LEDs. For a round table, our round table wreath with stars, which also has four candles, is a better fit.

Yes, all four can be lit at the same time, but with care, because there is greenery all around them. Stand the piece on something solid and flat, with no curtains, paper tablecloths or napkins nearby. Never leave them burning unattended, and snuff all four before you leave the house or settle down to sleep. As the wax goes down, the flames creep closer to the branches, the angels and the baubles; put them out for good before they get there. Prefer no fire at all? The “Winter Elegance” Christmas arrangement comes without candles.

The essentials are fixed: a long shape of roughly 70 × 45 cm, natural fir and pine, four candles and two angels. What can change, according to what comes into the shop that week, is the colour of the candles (glittery red in the photo), the style of the angels, and the baubles, stars, bells and pine cones. Angels and trimmings are ornaments rather than toys, so place it beyond the reach of small children.

Yes, and the card is free. You type the message during checkout; we bring it along with the centrepiece. If the first line will not come, Bloomi, our website’s AI helper, offers a draft you can rewrite as much as you like.

At checkout you choose a date and a slot. On weekdays the van does two runs, one from 10:00 to 14:00 and another from 16:00 to 20:00; Saturday has just the morning run and Sunday none at all. To give you an idea, outside the busiest weeks, an order placed before 9:00 normally goes out with the 10:00–14:00 run, and one placed before 13:00 with the 16:00–20:00 run. December runs fill up quickly, so with a piece this size, order in advance. Picking it up from our Coll d'en Rabassa shop is another option.

We are Ekaterina and Sergio, and Floristería Mallorca has been our family business since December 2016. That month we opened the doors at C/ Cardenal Rossell 73, Coll d'en Rabassa (Palma), a few minutes from Palma airport, and we are still there. She is up early choosing flowers and branches and designs everything we make, this centrepiece too; he keeps the website running and looks after Bloomi, which helps people write their card messages. We drive every delivery ourselves.
