Description
This scented candle comes in the Woodfire scent, poured into a compact iron tin wrapped in a white printed label of feathers, flowers and a moth. It holds 335g of soy paraffin wax around a cotton wick, and the maker gives a burn time of 50 hours, so it is a candle to light again and again rather than a one-evening treat. At 9.7cm across and 8.5cm tall it is a low, wide tin rather than a tall pillar, which means it sits neatly on a shelf or table, and the whole candle weighs 0.48KG.
We like this size for the places where a big candle would crowd things: a bedside table, the end of a sideboard, a desk or a bathroom shelf. Because the tin has its own lid, it tucks away tidily in a cupboard or drawer between burns, and it is just as at home in the living room as on a bedroom shelf for a quiet evening with a book. The printed wrap looks finished even when the candle is not lit, which makes it an easy gift for a housewarming, a birthday or a thank you, and a good choice for anyone who likes a cosy room through the autumn and winter.
The wax is soy paraffin, the wick is cotton and the container is iron, a sturdy metal, so the container is not as fragile as a glass holder. The printed label wraps around the tin, the lid sits over the top, and a rim at the base finishes it neatly. Keep the lid on between burns to keep dust off the wax. For styling, group it with a couple of stacked books and a small vase of dried grasses on a sideboard, or set it on a tray on a coffee table, where the feather and flower print catches the eye.
