These Sunshine Candleworks spiral candles are the locally-handmade alternative to the plain colored Christmas tapers that fill big-box holiday aisles. Each candle is hand-dipped with red and green inlaid lines that twist around the taper from base to wick — creating a distinct holiday-decoration look that’s significantly more striking than uniformly-colored alternatives. Set of two candles per pack, sized to match standard candle holders.
The dripless formulation means the candles burn cleanly without dripping wax onto tablecloths, holders, or table surfaces — important for formal dining where the candles are part of the table setting. Unscented, so they don’t compete with the food aromas at holiday dinners. Each candle burns approximately 10 hours, with the red and green twist holding its visual interest right down to the final inch.
The candles taper to a base of approximately 3/4-inch outer diameter and stand 9-1/2 inches tall — the standard taper-candle dimensions that fit most candle holders, candelabras, and table-top displays. Handmade locally in Ohio by Sunshine Candleworks. Holders not included. For households building a holiday candle inventory, dinner parties needing visually distinctive table candles, or anyone gifting holiday decorations, this is the right purchase. Lehman’s catalog selection.
