2 ¼” Diameter: Our Thickest 100% Beeswax Altar Candles
Measuring a sturdy 2 ¼” in diameter, these are our thickest 100% beeswax altar candles. Coming four to a box, 9” tall and equipped with an all purpose end, these chubby candles are a beautiful way to illuminate the longest services. Like all beeswax candles, these naturally burn longer than similarly sized paraffin wax options. By virtue of their thickness, they’re extremely slow burning, giving hour after hour of light long after other candles have burnt out.
With a right sized follower on top, you can count on many hours of use. In fact, when lighting them, be sure they stay burning for at least 50 minutes. If they burn for less than a full 50 minutes, you risk tunneling them. Tunneled candles do not burn properly and may need to be repaired before relighting.
Prepared and cared for properly, these thick beeswax candles will give clear, bright, smokeless light for a long time. While they are individually more expensive than candles made out of paraffin wax, the cost to burn 100% pure beeswax candles per hour is significantly less. When you add up the benefits and long-run cost savings offered by beeswax candles, the choice is clear.
Beeswax Candles Benefit Allergy and Asthma Sufferers
Individuals with asthma and allergies have found burning beeswax candles offers noticeable relief from their symptoms. The reason for this is candles made out of beeswax generate negative ions as they burn and actively eliminate pollutants from the air. These cleaning properties are bolstered by the clean burning of beeswax to make sure toxins and contaminants are not added to the air by the candle.
The 100% beeswax altar candles sold by T. H. Stemper are dye, color, pigment and fragrance free. Other than the wick, the only ingredient in these candles is naturally produced beeswax. Trust our 100% beeswax candles to illuminate your next candlelit event.
