Know before you buy
Blowing out a candle often causes hot wax to splatter and soot to settle on the wick, which can lead to smoke and uneven burning. A snuffer safely cuts off the oxygen supply, keeping your wax clean and your wick centered for the next use.
At 9.5 inches long, this tool provides a comfortable reach that keeps your hands safely away from the flame and heat while extinguishing taller pillar candles.
Because this snuffer features an oil-rubbed finish, it is not dishwasher safe and should not be submerged in water. Simply wipe the bell and handle with a soft, dry cloth after use to remove any soot buildup.
The piece is finished with an oil rub, but because it is made of raw wrought iron, it is not inherently rust-resistant. We recommend keeping it in a dry environment and avoiding contact with water to maintain its matte black appearance.
While it is designed with a bell shape ideal for pillar candles, it can be used on any candle where the wick is accessible. Just ensure the bell can fit over the flame without touching the surrounding wax pool.
