Description
This 18th birthday scented candle pairs a sandalwood fragrance with a keepsake look, set in a clear round jar under a polished silver lid. The wax is a soft cream, and on the front sits a round silver medallion with raised lettering: a large 18th above a banner reading BIRTHDAY and three small stars, ringed by the age counted out as 18 years, 216 months, 939 weeks, 6574 days, 157788 hours and 9467077 minutes. It stands 8.5cm tall and 7.6cm across, a compact size that sits neatly on a shelf, desk or bedside table.
We see it as a thoughtful 18th birthday gift, a present that marks the day and stays on show long after the cake has gone. The medallion says exactly which birthday it celebrates, and the cream and silver colouring sits easily in most rooms, from a bright bedroom to a calm living room. Set it on a dressing table, a windowsill or a mantelpiece, where the polished silver lid and medallion catch the light whether the candle is lit or not. Lit, it brings the scent of sandalwood to a bedroom or a quiet corner, and once the evening is over it still looks the part sitting on a shelf.
A single wick sits in the centre of the cream wax, and the silver lid lifts straight off when you want to light it, then sits back on top between uses to keep dust away from the wax. Stand the candle on a flat, steady surface away from draughts, and never leave a burning candle unattended. To care for it, wipe the lid and medallion with a soft dry cloth to keep the silver bright. For gifting, leave the lid on and turn the medallion to the front, and it is ready to hand over on the big day.
