Know before you buy
Cold compacting uses two tonnes of pressure to compress the wax into a highly dense form. This results in a much harder candle that burns significantly slower and cleaner than traditional poured wax.
No, this is an unscented pillar candle. It is designed to provide a clean, pure light without interfering with the aroma of your home or dining space.
To ensure optimal performance and prevent soot, keep the cotton wick trimmed to approximately 5mm before each use. We also recommend using a candle extinguisher to put out the flame, which prevents smoke and protects the wick.
Due to the high-density paraffin and the cold compacting process, this candle is designed to burn steadily and cleanly. However, as with any pillar candle, we recommend placing it on a heat-resistant tray or candle holder to protect your surfaces from any potential wax runoff.
The candle stands 20cm (7.87 inches) tall with a diameter of 5cm (1.97 inches), making it a versatile size for most standard pillar candle holders.
