Tea Light Flower Candle - Handmade | Beeswax

Every Shiva Organic’s candle is made with 100% pure beeswax plus a pure cotton wick. Nothing else. No fillers. No fragrances. No soy, palm or paraffin wax… just the purest beeswax in the world. 

Why beeswax candles:

1. Beeswax candles burn with a golden aura-ed flame that is larger than other toxic candles (because of the high melting point of the wax we can use a larger wick) throwing more light.
2. It burns significantly longer than any non-beeswax candles of a similar size.
3. They purify the air via ionisation and have significant health benefits especially for those of us suffering from respiratory problems like asthma.
4. It is good for your health, good for beekeepers, good for the regional communities they live in, good for farmers who rely on bees for pollination, good for forests, good for the environment, good for artisan skills, good for keeping up with sustainable practices and because of all of that, good for you!!

Tea light candles

• A tealight candle should be burned in one sitting.
• A tealight candle has a wick that is held up by a metal ‘sustainer’. That sustainer has a 3mm neck holding the wick upright.
• So, if you want to burn your tealights over multiple sessions please ensure there is a MINIMUM of 6mm of beeswax in the bottom of the tealight cup (that’s around ½ the height of the 4-5hour tealight cup and just over 1/3 of the height of the 8-9hour tealight cup).
• Putting a candle into a glass vessel multiplies the light emitted by the candle many times over.  
• Curved glass (like a fishbowl) will achieve a better result than straight sided glass because the flame is reflected from many angles.
