Striped Dinner Candles - Box of 4 - Guardsman's Red/Gull These boxed sets contain 4 standard diameter dinner candles that are multi-coloured and feature bands of 2 different coloured wax in each candle. We are big fans of a solid colour dinner candle but these striped versions bring a certain joyfulness to proceedings and look great individually or would make a good gift. We have 5 variations of these boxed sets; each containing different colour combinations which I think also work well in combination with each other. The other striped candles are jasmine/rust/petrol and opaline/pompadour/rust The candles are made from stearin wax and are fair trade certified. Stearin wax is a natural wax derived from palm trees and therefore doesn't contain the toxins associated with paraffin based wax. These candles have a burn time of 8-9 hours. They should be handled carefully in order for the different coloured layers of wax to not separate. Each candle measures 25.2cm.
