Stearin pillar candles – solid colour, odourless, Ø 64mm

Your guests are about to arrive and the table is laid. All that's missing now is the warm light that turns a dinner into a cosy evening. These pillar candles made of solid-coloured stearin are made for exactly that. You light them, and they burn especially brightly, steadily and without any smell. They don't distract from the food or the conversation. With their marbled, web-like look, they stand out on your table straight away.

What changes for you

• Your home smells of you, not of candles – because these stearin pillar candles burn odourless and add no scent of their own.
• You'll worry less about soot marks on your lantern or ceiling – thanks to the low-soot, very steady flame.
• Every candle lasts you a good while: the small size burns for around 27 hours, the large one for about 50 hours.
• Your decoration keeps its colour even as the candles burn down. The colour goes right through the candle, not just a thin outer layer.
• You can choose with a clear conscience: the stearin is purely plant-based, comes from renewable raw materials and is sourced exclusively from RSPO-certified producers.

Why these pillar candles make a difference every day

A burning candle changes the mood in a room instantly: the light softens, the table looks more inviting, and even an ordinary Tuesday evening feels calmer. Because these stearin candles burn evenly and brightly, there's no nervous flickering – you set them down, light them and turn your attention to your guests or your book. And as they come in lots of colours, you'll always find the right shade for your Advent wreath, table arrangement or windowsill.

Material & finish

The candles are made from pure, plant-based stearin – a material from 100% renewable raw materials that's valued for its bright, calm flame. The wick is 100% cotton, and the finish is clean and even, so the candles hold their shape and burn down neatly. The solid-coloured, slightly marbled surface is no accident but typical of stearin – each candle shows its own fine texture. The candles are made in Germany.

• In an arrangement for a birthday, christening or anniversary: the solid-coloured candle blends in with your colour scheme and burns reliably throughout the celebration.

Good to know about stearin

Stearin has been used for candles since the 19th century and is still considered a classic candle material: it's harder than paraffin, burns brighter and keeps its shape better. In practical terms, that means the candles stay upright and burn evenly, even when lit for many hours at a time – ideal for long evenings and special occasions.
