Our Christmas holly taper candles pair a bright red beeswax body with a hand applied holly sprig and a fine gold edge. Each pair is crafted by hand in our Idaho workshop from 100% pure beeswax, which burns clean, virtually drip free and unscented, with only the faint honey note the wax carries naturally. At 12 inches they fit a standard candlestick holder, so they work as a Christmas dinner table centrepiece without needing anything special to hold them. The red is a true festive scarlet rather than a muted tone, and it holds its colour against greenery and white linen.

Very well made and quite stunning. Highly recommend!
My mother is 100 years old and I have been getting these candles for her for years. She loves them so much and continues every day to have them on her dinner table and lit each night for dinner. They bring her so much joy and really loves the Easter Bunny Candles. She has them on display so all her visitors can see and enjoy them.
These beautiful candles were given as a gift. Upon response to their receipt they raved about the beauty and unusualness of the candles and stated they would be displayed and use at the next special event.
At first, I was somewhat dubious about using a pair. However I've had these
on my dining room table and every night I light them as I have my dinner.
It makes for a more "tranquil" evening which we ALL need. Also are you ever going to make those short, fat candles that require the 2 batteries in them. These are great for night lights, & safer to use which are NOT lit.
My candles arrived safely and they are as beautiful as ever. I am glad that the new owners are maintaining the same quality and style that Mitch and family did. I hope that the price does not go up. I love gifting them.
