See compatible candle holders<\/a><\/p>\nWhy beeswax?<\/h3>\n
Beeswax gives a bright, steady flame, with no smoke or dripping, and naturally releases a soft scent of honey. A product of the hive, it supports beekeeping. To make candles, simple filtering removes the impurities: no chemical treatment, no additives, and it burns without releasing toxic substances.<\/p>\n
Its only drawback is its price: about six times more expensive than paraffin, which comes from petroleum, and two to three times more than plant waxes.<\/p>\n
How are they made?<\/h3>\n
Our purified beeswax comes from a supplier less than 80 km from the workshop. It arrives as small flakes, which we melt in a bain-marie. We centre a cotton wick in each mould, then pour in the wax. Once cooled, the candles are unmoulded, their wicks trimmed and their bases bevelled to fit your candle holders perfectly.<\/p>\n![\"Wax](\"https:\/\/desbougiespournagel.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/cire_copeaux-scaled-1024x1024.webp\")
