Large Soy Wax Candle in Concrete Bowl, 3 Wooden Wicks

Large Soy Wax Candle in Concrete Bowl, 3 Wooden Wicks is a large soy wax candle in a hand-cast, ribbed graphite concrete bowl. Three flames melt the whole surface quickly and give plenty of light: a candle for the middle of the table and long autumn and winter evenings.

Specifications:
• 1 large ribbed concrete bowl, graphite
• Candle: soy wax with a light autumn scent, poured directly into the vessel
• 3 wooden wicks
• Diameter: approx. 13 cm

First burn:
The first time you light the candle, let it burn until the whole surface has melted, usually 2–3 hours. The wax then melts evenly and does not tunnel around the wick.

After the candle:
Once the candle has burned down and cooled, remove the remaining wax with a wooden stick. The concrete vessel stays for small things, jewellery or as a cover pot for a small plant.

Handmade:
Each vessel is cast by hand from concrete, so the shade, small pores and air bubbles vary from piece to piece and may differ from the photos. Soy wax can set with a matte, slightly uneven surface. These are natural features of the materials, not defects.

Care:
Concrete is porous: wipe it with a dry, soft cloth and do not put it in the dishwasher. Use a mat under the vessel on delicate surfaces.

Safety:
Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep it away from curtains, paper, decorations, children and pets. Burn it on a stable, heat-resistant surface in a ventilated room, away from draughts, at least 10 cm from other candles. Before each use, remove the charred tip of the wooden wick and trim it to about 3–5 mm. Do not burn the candle for more than 4 hours at a time. The concrete vessel gets hot while the candle burns: do not move it until it has cooled. Stop burning when about 1 cm of wax remains. Do not put the flame out with water.
