Price’s Ivory Pillar Candle 10cm × 8cm • Church & Ritual Candle • Up to 50 Hours

Compact, simple and quietly elegant, this Price’s Ivory Pillar Candle offers the traditional look of a church or altar candle in a shorter, more versatile size.

Measuring approximately 10cm high × 8cm wide, it has a substantial presence without the height of a larger pillar candle, making it particularly useful for smaller altars, meditation spaces, wedding displays, lanterns and home décor.

Made from fully refined mineral wax, this solid ivory candle is designed for a bright, even burn with reduced sooting when used correctly. Its completely unfragranced finish also makes it ideal where candlelight is wanted without competing perfume.

With a burn time of up to approximately 50 hours, it provides long-lasting candlelight while remaining compact enough for everyday ceremonial or decorative use.

Compact Ivory Pillar Candle

At 10cm high, this version has the same broad 8cm diameter as the larger Price’s altar candles but in a much shorter format.

That gives it a pleasing sense of weight and presence while making it easier to use in smaller spaces.

Its proportions work particularly well for altar shelves, side tables, lanterns, wedding centrepieces and arrangements where a taller church candle would feel too dominant.

The warm ivory colour also gives it a softer appearance than bright white, pairing beautifully with natural wood, brass, stone, flowers and neutral décor.

Unscented for Flexible Use

Because this pillar candle is unfragranced, it can be used in settings where added scent would be distracting or unsuitable.

It works especially well alongside incense, floral arrangements or other scented products because it contributes light and atmosphere without introducing another fragrance.

Church, Altar & Ritual Candle Use

The simple ivory design makes this candle particularly adaptable to ceremonial and spiritual spaces.

It may be used for prayer, altar arrangements, personal ritual, meditation, remembrance or seasonal ceremonies.

It is equally suitable as a decorative candle for weddings or quiet home interiors.

The meaning comes from the setting and intention in which it is used rather than from the candle itself.

Up to 50 Hours Burn Time

Under suitable conditions, this Price’s pillar candle offers up to approximately 50 hours of burn time.

Actual performance can vary according to wick length, draughts, room temperature and individual burn sessions.

For a steadier burn:

  • keep away from open windows, fans and strong air movement
  • use on a level surface
  • trim the wick when necessary
  • allow the wax to cool fully between burns

The quoted burn time is approximate rather than guaranteed.

Solid Wax Construction

This candle is made from solid wax throughout rather than being an over-dipped candle with only a decorative outer wax layer.

Its fully refined mineral wax / paraffin construction gives the candle a consistent structure from the outer surface through to the centre.

The supplied product information describes the candle as designed for a bright, clean and even burn when used correctly.

Ivory Colour & Atmosphere

The soft ivory / off-white tone gives this candle a warmer feel than stark white.

It sits comfortably within both traditional and contemporary settings, including church interiors, spiritual spaces, rustic weddings and peaceful home décor.

The understated colour allows the flame itself to remain the main visual focus.

Meditation & Quiet Reflection

The broad shape and steady flame make this candle a simple visual focus for meditation, prayer, journalling or quiet contemplation.

Its lack of fragrance can be especially useful in meditation spaces where a neutral atmosphere is preferred.

The candle does not need a particular spiritual meaning to be enjoyed; the warmth and movement of the flame can be enough.

Wedding & Decorative Use

The shorter 10cm format makes this version especially easy to incorporate into wedding and event styling.

It can sit comfortably in lanterns, on ceremony tables, within larger displays or alongside floral arrangements.

Always keep flowers, foliage, fabric and decorative materials safely clear of the flame.

How to Burn a Pillar Candle

Place the candle on a stable, level and heat-resistant candle plate or holder that comfortably supports its 8cm diameter.

Before lighting or relighting, trim the wick to approximately 1cm if necessary.

Keep the candle away from draughts so the flame remains centred and burns more evenly.

Allow the candle to burn steadily, but extinguish it whenever required rather than leaving it unattended simply to achieve a particular melt pool.

Let the wax cool and harden before moving or relighting.

Candle Safety

Always burn this candle on a stable, non-flammable, heat-resistant surface.

For safe use:

  • never leave a burning candle unattended
  • keep away from children and pets
  • keep away from curtains, paper and dried flowers
  • avoid draughts and direct heat sources
  • leave at least 10cm between burning candles
  • never move while wax is liquid
  • never use water to extinguish
  • use a suitable candle snuffer where appropriate

Care for an Even Burn

If the flame becomes unusually large or the wick develops a carbon build-up, extinguish the candle, allow it to cool and trim the wick before relighting.

Strong draughts may cause uneven burning or excess soot, so choose a calm position away from open windows and vents.

A level candle plate will also help the wax burn more evenly.
