Black Edition taper candles – hand-decorated, 180 mm × Ø 22 mm

Your guests are about to arrive, and the table is set. With the first match, the whole room changes. These Black Edition taper candles bring exactly this calm light to your table. They are slim, hand-decorated candles with an elaborate colour design on deep black. They are made for your festively laid table. You light them and sit back. Now the evening can begin.

What changes for you

• Your table looks festive straight away, without much decorating. Each candle is decorated by hand with coloured waxes. It shows its pattern even before you light it.
• You can relax at the table instead of watching the flame. Thanks to highly refined wax, the candles burn with little soot, no odour and a very steady flame.
• You have light for the whole evening. With a burn time of around 8 hours, one candle lasts from the aperitif to the last conversation.
• Your dining table, windowsill and display cabinet stay clean. The candles burn without leaving any residue.
• You put something unique on your table. Each candle is decorated by hand, so every one is one of a kind. No two are alike.

Why these dinner candles make a difference every day

A lit taper candle changes the mood of a room more than any other decoration. The light gets softer. Conversations get calmer. Even an ordinary dinner feels a little more special. These candles burn brightly and evenly, without flickering or smelling. So the calm stays, whether at dinner for two or at a festive table with guests.

Material & finish

The candles are made from highly refined paraffin wax. This gives a low-soot, odourless burn that leaves no residue. The wick is 100% cotton and carries a bright, calm flame. The colour decoration is applied by hand. Shades and colour gradients therefore vary from candle to candle. This is not a flaw. It makes each piece unique. The finish is clean throughout, with no visible seams or unevenness.

How to use the dinner candles

• For dinner with guests: place two candles in simple taper candle holders in the centre of the table. The mood is there before the first course. Otherwise you would spend ages decorating to get it.
• In Advent: put four on an Advent wreath for taper candles. The black colour design contrasts elegantly with the green of the branches.
• At Christmas: on a festive table or in a table arrangement, the dark candles create a calm, elegant look instead of colourful clutter.
• In a lantern on the patio or windowsill: a small mood light that helps you slow down after work.
• In a café or restaurant: one candle per table transforms the dining room in the evening in just a few steps. They are low-soot and odourless, so nothing distracts from the food.
