A pair of 12-inch joint-wick taper candles made from food-grade paraffin wax with candle pigment. Each candle measures approximately 0.88 inches in diameter and 11.5 inches in height. The joint wick construction is a restaurant-grade format designed for consistent, controlled burning.
The taper form is one of the oldest candle silhouettes in continuous use — tall, narrow, and proportioned for candlesticks and candelabras. These read as straightforward and architectural rather than decorative, and work as well on a bare wooden table as they do in a more layered, maximalist setting. The white finish is neutral enough to read against almost any surface.
Taper candles perform best in still air: away from vents, drafts, and open windows. Secure them in a fitted holder so they sit plumb — a candle that lists will burn unevenly and faster. Sold as a pair, they're a practical stock item for a dining table, a mantel arrangement, or anywhere a candle holder already lives.
