Sphere Candle Relief Waves Red-Yellow

✨ Decorative sphere candle – relief waves | handmade (SVITSOL)

This sphere, 7.5 cm in diameter and weighing 0.195 kg, is cast from a premium paraffin wax blend and fitted with a cotton wick. The burn time is 15–30 hours. The surface is decorated with a fine wave relief that turns an ordinary candle into a design object – it looks lovely even unlit. You can choose between the Citronella and Wild strawberry scents.

🌊 What is it made of?

It is made of a premium paraffin wax blend. This material holds its shape, does not sag to the sides and keeps the relief intact even after hours of burning – with softer waxes the fine texture melts away after the first lighting. The wick is cotton, matched to the diameter of the candle so that it burns evenly and does not smoke.

We make our candles by hand. The SVITSOL brand was founded in 2004, and today we have more than twenty years of working with wax behind us. Our workshop is in Královské Poříčí in the Karlovy Vary Region, and the spheres leave it one by one – each passes through our hands, not just through a machine.

🕯️ How long does it burn?

15–30 hours, depending on how you use it. The difference is made mainly by draughts and the length of each burn. If you burn the candle in a calm room and in shorter sessions, you will reach the upper limit. By an open window or door it burns faster and the flame pulls the wax to one side.

In practice, one sphere lasts for many evenings – it is not a candle for a single evening.

🌿 What does it smell like?

Two variants:

• Citronella – a fresh citrus note, typical of summer evenings and sitting outside under a roof.
• Wild strawberry – sweeter and fruity, better suited to the living room and bedroom.

The scent develops only after a few minutes of burning, once a pool of melted wax has formed. Unlit, the sphere smells only subtly – that is fine and exactly as it should be.

🏡 Where it fits best

• Living room – coffee table, chest of drawers, bookshelf
• Bedroom – soft evening atmosphere
• Bathroom – home wellness
• Study or studio – a calm design detail, even when unlit

The round shape is timeless. It suits a modern interior as well as an old cottage with wooden furniture – it does not shout, it complements.

Styling tip: place the sphere on a tray next to a prism or a pillar. The contrast of a smooth surface and relief looks better than three identical shapes in a row.

🎁 Is it a good gift?

Yes, even for someone who is hard to buy for. A decorative candle is not something people already have five of, and the handwork shows – the relief has a depth that pressed mass-produced candles lack. Two shapes or two scents can be combined into a set.

✅ How to care for it?

Trim the wick to 5–7 mm before each lighting. A long wick smokes and blackens glass and the wall behind the candle.

Burn it for no more than 1–2 hours at a time and place the sphere on a stable, non-flammable surface – a small plate, a stone coaster, ceramics. The wax melts while burning and the base catches it.

Avoid draughts. The flame leans in them, the wax runs to one side and the candle burns down unevenly.

Never leave a burning candle unattended and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
