Bee Hive Candles Colonial Beeswax Taper Candles

Yes, these beeswax tapers are designed to be dripless under normal conditions. However, ensure they are placed in a draft-free area, as air currents can cause even the highest-quality beeswax candles to drip.

These candles have a very subtle, natural honey aroma derived from the beeswax itself. They are not scented with artificial fragrances, so the smell is faint and will not overpower a room or interfere with dining.

Each taper is rated for a 24-hour burn time. Because beeswax has a higher melting point than paraffin or soy wax, it burns significantly slower and cleaner, providing consistent light for extended use.

These candles have a standard 1-inch diameter, which is the universal size for most traditional taper candle holders. If you find they are slightly snug, you can gently shave the base with a knife or use a candle adhesive to secure them.

Beeswax is a natural, renewable resource that burns cleaner and longer than paraffin, which is a petroleum byproduct. Unlike soy, which is often processed, pure beeswax requires minimal refinement and emits a warm, bright light that mimics the spectrum of the sun.
