Description
This scented candle carries a fluffy yellow chick on its front label, wide-eyed and open-beaked, as if it has just caught the scent itself. Over the chick, in relaxed handwritten-style lettering, the label reads smells clucking good, with vanilla and tonka named just underneath. The wax is a soft cream, and the label is cream with a bright yellow border, so the colours stay warm and gentle. It is a round 250g candle, standing about 11cm tall and 8cm across, and it comes with a round lid in a light wood-grain finish.
We think it sits happily on a kitchen dresser, a bookshelf or a side table in the sitting room, where the chick can raise a smile before the wick is even lit. At about 11cm tall it fits a narrow shelf without crowding it, and the round shape looks tidy from every side. It makes a small, cheerful present for anyone who enjoys a farmyard pun or a friend who could do with a laugh, and it is just as welcome kept for yourself on a grey afternoon.
The lid sits neatly over the top of the jar, keeping dust off the wax between burns and keeping the candle tidy when it is not lit. For the best burn, trim the wick to about half a centimetre before each lighting, stand the candle on a level surface away from draughts, curtains, children and pets, and let the wax melt evenly across the top on the first burn. Never leave a burning candle unattended, and let it cool before you put the lid back on. A soft dry cloth keeps the lid and label looking fresh. Tie a ribbon round it and the chick does the rest of the talking.
