These hand-dipped taper candles feature a playful, twisted silhouette - making a statement upon every dining table or mantelpiece. \n \n*For the best burn experience, keep the following in mind:* \n \n* The first time you light your candle, allow it to burn until the wax pool melts all the way to the edge, for a larger candle, this may take several hours. Wax has memory, so if it is extinguished with a partial pool, that will prevent a full, even pool from forming in the future. \n* Trim your wick each time you light the candle, removing any bloom from the previous burn. We recommend lighting a wick that is 1/4-1/2 in length. \n* Ensure that your candle is placed on a heat-safe surface. \n* Do not allow wick trimmings, dust, or other materials to accumulate in the wax pool. \n* To ensure safety and longevity, be sure to check the bottom of your candle for addition
