Cone Candles – Elegance & Energy
🔺 Cone candles – a shape that points towards the sky
The cone is perhaps the oldest candle shape of all. Why? Because when wax drips down, it naturally forms a cone. Our ancestors knew this, and we are building on it – with the difference that our cones don't drip on the table. We make them precisely, cleanly, and so that they look like small sculptures.
Why do people love cones? (And why do some hate them)
✅ Advantages of a cone:
- Looks luxurious – as if it belongs in a gallery
- Stable base – it won't fall over even if you kick the table
- Flame on top – the light goes straight up, it doesn't glare
- Feng shui symbolism – in feng shui, the cone stands for rising energy
- Instagram photogenic – every photo looks like it's from a magazine
❌ Disadvantages (let's be fair):
- Burns faster than a cylinder of the same weight
- More difficult to manufacture = more expensive
- Some people think it looks like a traffic cone (well, yes)

How to make a cone burn perfectly?
- Place on a flat surface – no tilted tables
- Let the first burn last at least an hour – this creates the right "path" for the wax
- Wick max 1 cm – longer = smokes and drips
- No drafts – the cone is more sensitive to wind than a cylinder
- A plate under the candle – just in case, even if it shouldn't drip
Frequently asked questions
Why is a cone more expensive than a cylinder?
More difficult to manufacture. We have to cast it in layers, otherwise it would collapse. We pour the cylinder at once.
Does it really not drip?
If there is no draft and you have the wick trimmed correctly, it will not drip.
Can I have a cone with a photo?
Technically no – we can't put a photo on a sloping surface. But we can make a cylinder that looks like a cone (optical illusion).
Is a cone suitable as a wedding candle?
Definitely! It symbolizes a shared journey upwards. We also make matching cones – for him and her.
