Know before you buy
Measure the diameter of your candle's top surface. You should choose a follower that is slightly smaller than the candle diameter to ensure it sits properly on the wax as it melts.
Yes, solid brass will naturally develop a patina over time due to exposure to air and heat. If you prefer a bright finish, you can easily restore the shine using a standard brass polish.
These are designed specifically for pillar candles. They are most effective on candles with a diameter that matches the follower size, as the weighted base needs to rest securely on the rim of the wax.
The weight provides constant, gentle pressure on the candle rim. This helps direct the melting wax inward, which prevents the edges from collapsing and stops wax from dripping down the sides.
Yes, they work perfectly with scented pillar candles. By promoting an even burn, they can actually help the candle release fragrance more consistently.
