In “Beauty and the Beast,” the candelabra is named Lumiere.
Lumiere is one of the enchanted servants in Disney’s 1991 animated film. Before the spell, he was the maître d’ of the Beast’s castle; the curse transformed him into a gold candelabra. His name is a French word associated with “light,” fitting both his form and his warm, theatrical personality.
Lumiere is voiced by Jerry Orbach and speaks with a French accent. He is energetic, flirtatious, and fond of bending the Beast’s rules, especially when he welcomes Belle. His closest companion among the servants is Cogsworth, who has been transformed into a mantel clock.
A common mix-up is confusing the enchanted objects: Mrs. Potts is the teapot, Chip is her teacup son, and Cogsworth is the clock. Lumiere is the one who sings “Be Our Guest” and leads the elaborate dinner performance for Belle.
