Candle Care & Safety
We truly hope you enjoy your candles from The Naked Chandler.
Each type of candle has been thoroughly tested but please be aware that every candle is unique as it has been created by hand
so there may be slight variations in performance.
To ensure you get the very best from your candles and keep safe throughout your enjoyment of them,
please follow these guidelines:

To ensure you get the very best from your candles and keep safe throughout your enjoyment of them,
please follow these guidelines:
Trim the wick to approximately 5mm before the first burn and each subsequent burn to help ensure a clean burn.
Natural cotton wicks will smoke if not trimmed and burned properly.
The first time you light your candle, allow enough time for the candle to burn near to the edge of the container, achieving a good melt pool.
This helps prevent a tunnel of wax forming around the wick which will considerably shorten the burn time.
Each burn should ideally last no more than 4 hours.
Leave at least 10cm between each candle if burning more than one.
Do not drop matches or other objects into the wax.
Never leave a burning candle unattended and always burn out of reach of children and pets.
Do not burn in a draught or near anything that could catch fire.
Always place candles in a suitable container if not already provided and always place on a heat resistant surface.
Glass and metal will heat during use so avoid touching and never handle a lit candle.
Use a candle snuffer to extinguish your candle to prevent excess smoke escaping.
When your candles are finished, it’s time to revisit The Naked Chandler!
