Hand Dipped Beeswax Candle, Taper

These beautiful handmade candles are a real piece of art. Their completely natural honey scent makes them a joy to have in your home. 

Dipping has long been a method of candle making, and when candles were essential to life in the country, rushlights were made by dipping the pith of rushes in mutton fat or dripping.

For every ten tons of honey, only a quarter of a ton of beeswax is produced. Larger beekeepers in this country can keep over a thousand hives, often this wax is wasted and so it’s a delight to see these beautiful objects light up our homes using a waste product.

Size: 20cm Base Diameter: 22mm Diameter: 1.3mm. Burn time 8hrs.

All candles sold in pairs joined at the wick.
