NEW PRODUCT! Slender and tall, our thin taper candles are hand-dipped in pure beeswax and measure 1/2" at the base and 12" in total length. These narrow candlesticks are perfect for meditation, prayer, reflection and ceremony. They're beautiful as a group, embedded in a bowl of sand, or all on their own. The fit easily into a variety of chime and slender taper holders. Sold in gorgeous, rootsy bundles of 5 pairs — 10 thin taper candles. Burn time: 6 hours per candle, 30 min per inch. Care: - Always place taper candle in a holder and use caution — holder may become hot at the end of the burn. - To avoid drips, trim the wick to 1/4" before first light and do not trim after that (the long wick prevents drips). Burn out of drafts and use a snuffer to gently extinguish the flame. - These thin candles are delicate and malleable. They can be bent into a variety of shapes, if desired, but please note this may cause them to drip or burn unevenly.
