This is a precious vase. Do not exceed the burning time indicated. Any minor discrepancies between similar creations are the result of craftsmanship and attest to the uniqueness of each product. Before lighting the scented candle, care should be taken to shorten the candle wick with scissors to a maximum length of about 6 mm. For best results, burn until the wax melts evenly across container, not exceeding 2 hours. Coconut and rapeseed wax never leaves soot in your home if properly burned. The small irregularities of the wax is a proof of its naturalness.
