Description
This double wick scented candle marks six decades of marriage in three simple words, '60 years together', printed in fine black lettering on the side of a round white ceramic pot. The pot stands 7cm tall and 9cm across, a neat size for a mantelpiece, a sideboard or a dining table. Two wicks sit side by side in the wax, giving two flames from one candle. On top, a round printed insert carries a large 60 at its centre, with the words '60 years as mr & mrs' running around its edge, so the message reads from the side and from above.
We see it first as an anniversary gift for a couple reaching sixty years of marriage, whether it is handed over at a family lunch or set out in the middle of the table at a party in their honour. Lit while the toasts are made, the two flames make a quiet focal point without crowding the plates and glasses around it. Afterwards it settles happily into a living room, a dining room or a bedroom, where the printed side keeps the milestone in view. Its plain white pot sits comfortably with most colour schemes, from soft neutrals to deeper painted walls.
The candle sits in a smooth, round ceramic pot with a plain back, so the printed words face the room while the reverse stays simple. When the candle is cool, dust the pot with a soft dry cloth or wipe it with a damp cloth. As with any candle, stand it on a stable, level surface away from draughts, curtains and anything that could catch, keep the wicks trimmed, and never leave it burning unattended. As a gift it needs little more than a ribbon and a card in your own hand, because the words on the pot already say what matters most.
