Beeswax candle twisted Tussilago

Twisted beeswax candle Tussilago.
Natural yellow beeswax, hand-molded and shaped.

The twisted candles are an ancient tradition in Italy, where they symbolize the life-giving vine that, just like the candles, entwines itself in an embrace. They burn with double wicks so the flame becomes extra large.

Length 25-30 cm

All of my candles fit in regular candlesticks, but since the diameter of the candle holder can vary, the advantage of beeswax is that it is soft and can be reshaped a little if you warm it in your hand or put the end in warm water for a few seconds.

Cut the wick to 1 cm so the flame burns just the right size.
