I love the caste design on this 280g, large ball candle. It reminds me of the old metal iron work, like the covers over the heating registers in my grandmother's house (hopefully you will know what I mean and I am not just aging myself). This would be a lovely purchase to even keep on display, but would be lovely to burn as well. Please be safe when burning candles. Read the fire-safety information that we provide with your candle. Always burn in/on a fire-safe container that will contain any possible leaking wax, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
