Beautifully hand-poured and hand-painted candles featuring unique, colourful designs that add an artistic touch to any setting. Lovingly crafted in South Africa, primarily by single mothers from the local rural community. On average, each artisan supports an extended family of 12 to 15 people. Made from high-quality natural paraffin wax with 100% cotton wicks, these candles are unscented, smokeless, and free from added toxins. Taper candles are packaged as a matched pair. Each candle is uniquely handcrafted, so the product you receive may vary slightly from the website photos while remaining consistent with the theme of the collection. First burn time: 1-hour for every inch diameter Wicks should always be cut to ¼” prior to lighting Avoid drafts – they cause dripping! Ensure candles are extinguished prior to leaving the room
