Which Size Do You Need?

Select your stick length and pack size based on candle holder height, table scale, and planned burning time.

Color Profile and Holder Compatibility

Our bordeaux candlesticks feature a deep wine tone that is darker and richer than standard bright red. This dark red shade complements dark wood tables, brass candlesticks, and rich floral arrangements.

Securing Bordeaux Candlesticks in Holders

The base is shaped to fit standard 7/8-inch candle sockets. If your holder socket runs wide and the stick leans, trim a small wax shaving at the bottom edge or place a drop of warm wax in the socket base to anchor it straight upright.

Clean Burn Behavior and Care

To maintain clean burn performance and prevent wax running down the stick:

• Keep Air Still:Paraffin wax burns dripless only in calm air. Direct airflow from open windows, air conditioning units, or passing foot traffic tilts the flame, melting the outer rim and causing wax drops.
• Trim the Wick: Keep the cotton wick trimmed to 1/4 inch before lighting to prevent smoking and soot.
• Keep Cool: Store tapers flat in a cool room below 70°F (21°C) to prevent softening or bending prior to use.
