Description
This three wick scented candle pairs a smoky charcoal grey vessel with a round black lid. It is a calm, grown-up piece for a shelf, mantelpiece or side table. A fine gold line runs up the front to a small gold line drawing of the London skyline, with Big Ben and Tower Bridge picked out, and the same skyline is drawn in black on the lid. It weighs 397g and stands 9.1cm tall, 12.2cm across and 12cm deep, a good size for a coffee table. Three wicks give a broad, even glow across the wax, and with a burn time of 40 hours it sees you through plenty of quiet evenings.
We like it in a living room once the lamps are low, in a bedroom as the day winds down, or on a dining table where three flames add a warm glow to a meal. The grey and black colouring sits easily in modern, monochrome and neutral rooms, and the touch of gold works well alongside brass or gold accents. Because it is scented, it gives a room a welcoming feel before guests arrive. It also makes a thoughtful housewarming gift for someone who has just moved, something to light on the first evening in their home.
The lid lifts away for lighting and sits back on once the candle has cooled, keeping dust off the wax between burns. Trim each wick short before you light it, and on the first burn let the wax melt across the whole surface so it burns evenly afterwards. Stand it on a flat, stable surface away from draughts, curtains and pets, and never leave a burning candle unattended. Dust the outside and the lid with a soft dry cloth. Unlit with the lid on, it looks just as smart on a tray beside a stack of books, and it makes an easy gift to wrap for a friend moving house.
