About Taper, Pillar & Jar Candles

What you'll find

  • Dinner candle: a pure natural wax dinner candle, 25x2.3cm, in silver grey.

  • Olive wax jar candles: 120x70mm, in antique rose, turquoise and white.

Good to know

Choose taper colours for the table rather than the room: burgundy and gold for a Christmas table, ivory or pearl for a wedding or christening. Keep tapers out of draughts so they burn evenly and drip less, and stand them upright in a holder that grips the base.

Make it a gift: set two tapers in a vintage dinner candle holder of a toning colour, and add both to the home fragrance builder.

Questions

How much is delivery, and how long does it take?

Standard delivery to the UK mainland is £4.99, and free on orders of £50 or more. We aim to send orders within 1 to 2 working days, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 working days after that. Remote postcodes can take longer or cost more, and we will let you know if that applies. See our delivery information.

Do you deliver outside the UK?

We may be able to. International orders can take up to 2 to 3 weeks depending on the destination, and any import duties or taxes are paid by the recipient.

Can I return something?

Yes. If you change your mind, let us know within 14 days of receiving your order, then send it back within a further 14 days. Sealed cosmetic and hygiene items can't be returned once opened, unless they're faulty. If something arrives damaged, faulty or not as described, please tell us as soon as you can, ideally within 7 days, and we'll put it right. Please contact us before sending anything back. See our returns policy.

Can I put a gift together myself?

Yes. In the gift box builder you choose a box, or no box, then fill it with the pieces you like. There are also themed builders for crystals by meaning, bath gifts and home fragrance. See all builders.

Do I need an account to order?

No. You can check out as a guest, and you can change quantities or remove items in your basket before you pay.
