Pillar candles are crowd favourites due to their increased burn time and versatility. And their ability to self-support makes them an easy choice. However the extra wax makes them a more expensive initial investment - so you'll need to decide whether they're right for you.
What Are Pillar Candles?
Pillar candles are known for their short cylindrical shape.
Pillar candles are known for their short cylindrical shape.
Unlike taper candles that are thin and require a holder to stand upright, pillar candles are designed to stand on their own, thanks to their wider base.
Where tapers are typically 2cm wide, Pillars range from 5cm upwards.
Why choose Pillar Candles?
Longer burn times: Due to their width, Pillars have extended burn times. It's not unusual to see pillars last up to 100+ hours.
Self-Supporting: Pillar candles are designed to stand on their own without the need for a holder, reducing the risk of tipping over and causing accidents. Their broad base ensures stability on most flat surfaces.
Value for Money: Although they might have a higher initial cost compared to smaller candles, the long burn time and durability of pillar candles offer excellent value for money. They do not need to be replaced as frequently, making them a cost-effective choice for frequent use.
