Small spherical candle, with the Sun on one side and a Moon and Star on the other, perfect for your Litha or Yule altar. Honour the Sun on the longest day of the year (Summer Solst ice) or its rebirth after the longest night (Winter Solstice). Specifications Dimensions: ~4x4.8-5.3cm Wax: 100% pure New Zealand beeswax Colour: Natural golden yellow Scent: Unscented, natural honey Wicks: Cotton, square braided Burn time: ~8hours Candle Instructions To increase burn time and minimise flame size - keep wick trimmed to 5mm before each lighting and trim roughly every hour if possible to do safely. To maintain an even burn - carefully push any unmelted wax pieces into the wax pool as candle burns down. Ensure candle is on a level surface in a proper holder, large enough to capture any dripping wax. To extinguish the flame without smoking - dip wick into wax pool using an appropriate utensil and stand it back up for easy relighting. Always burn candle within sight and never leave unattended. Keep away from draughts, flammable objects, children and pets. If you prefer to use it as decor and enjoy it for longer, that is great too! Over time pure beeswax may naturally develop a white dusting called Bloom, this can be polished off with a soft cloth. As each candle is individually hand poured there may be small visible imperfections making each candle unique. Each candle will be made specially for you, which may take a few days so if your order is urgent, please let me know. Show more
