Size: 10 inches tall by 3 inches wide.
Description: This is one of our most popular beeswax candles.
It's from the early 1900s, has a unique shape, and burns in a very interesting way, with the center panel recessed and thinning out as the flame cuts the wax pool deeper and the imagery glows in the thin golden windowpane.
This is one of our large candles, so it can be burned for longer periods, but you can also just light it for 2 or 3 hours at a go, rather than the suggested 5 + for the XLs.
Burn time, 120 + hours.
Burning Note: The thicker the candle, the longer burn sessions it requires. I recommend burning XL candles for no less than 3 hours at a time and upwards of 5, 6, + hours. The reason for this is that the heat of the flame needs time to melt away the walls and feed the wax pool, so give it time to get the greatest value.
You can also “kneed” or press the warm lip of the candle inwards to get the walls to melt in faster and more efficiently.
Trimming the tip of the wick before each new burn is also beneficial. You can use scissors or nip the brittle end of the cold candle wick with your thumb nail. This eliminates any accumulation of carbon, burnt honey, pollen or propolis from the fabric and allows for a healthy flame and good flow of wax.
