Global Crafts Hand Painted Taper Candles Set of 2 - Zulu Design, 9 in

• INDABUKO, MEANING ORIGIN: In Zulu, Indabuko means source or origin, and the design carries traditional colors and patterns to match the name. Each taper is painted by hand, so the pair shares a motif while no two candles come out identical, a quality that makes them as much decoration as they are candles. The images shown represent the general style, while every set of two is truly one of a kind.
• PARAFFIN WAX, NATURAL WICK: Both candles are hand poured from fully refined paraffin wax, colored with pigments and fitted with natural wicks. They are unscented, giving a clean accent for a table or a room where an added fragrance would get in the way of the food or the conversation. That makes them a straightforward choice for dining rooms and smaller spaces.
• TWO TAPERS, TEN HOUR BURN: The set includes two candles at 9 in tall and 0.75 in in diameter, with an average burn time of about ten hours each. The slim round shaft fits most standard holders, making them easy to work into a table setting, a mantel display or a ceremonial arrangement indoors. Their slim round shape makes them versatile decorative candle sticks for most settings.
• FOR DINNERS AND CEREMONY: These suit a long dinner, a wedding table or a housewarming equally, and they carry enough color to stand in as decor when unlit. Set them in a pair of matched holders for symmetry, or place them at either end of a runner to frame the rest of the table. They add warmth and character while creating a calm ambiance in any room.
• AFRICAN HERITAGE, MADE BY HAND: The candles are poured and detailed by artisans in South Africa, whose work turns plain wax into a record of pattern and color tied to their own heritage. Global Crafts is a member of the Fair Trade Federation, and this pair is sourced on those fair trade terms. Blending traditional craftsmanship with artistic detail is the whole point of the design.
