In the 70's, those were called "dust catchers" because they are too pretty to light and once the dust settles in the folds it was impossible to clean.

If I recall correctly from years ago watching videos like this, when these candles burn, only the core melts due to the different kinds of wax used. So, if you were to burn one down, you would still have the decorative shell as display. These candles are beautiful to watch being made. I wish that we saw the unedited carving and dipping. It’s a long yet short process that is just so satisfying. And I’ve watched so many of these kinds of videos on repeat that the novelty of each video goes down even though the candles themselves are so gorgeous.

Would that mean that you can refill the cavity with a new wick and wax, or would the new hot wax cause the outside to melt?

@cathirodrigo2933 3 ай бұрын

I used to make these as a kid. Yes you can refill them until they fill up with just wax.

Someone gave my Aunt one of these in the 1980’s. She never lit it. In 2016, she died suddenly and one of her son’s lit the candle. It burned about an inch/2.54 cm and would not stay lit or burn anymore.

@errwb404 4 ай бұрын

I'm so glad you actually lit it for us! I'll never understand why people say they wouldn't burn these candles, that's like saying I wish I had an apple tree that never gave me apples. A candle was created to burn, the shame is only if it goes unappreciated.

In the summer of 1979 I was a young teenager in Rockport, Massachusetts, and I used to stand by the hour & watch a professional chandler making and carving these exact same candle creations at a local tourist storefront near the entrance to Bearskin Neck! I was amazed at the talent of the chandler & wanted to learn the art myself (I failed, of course, as I didn't have the artistic talent needed).

Nice job on that beauty💯 Just recalled bieng a boyscout! We Often made candles… At the end when it cooled a little off, we dipped our hands and making stearin hands… First two dips was hot! And rest was just fun! It was in the 80’s So no issues at all, free play! Touching each others faces🤣 So Strange num hands, sometimes we could pull our hands out. And there was a perfect cast😎 We just dumped it back into the warm stearin… Scoutleaders had fun watching our creapy hand-face touch🤣 We sold the candles we made, for summer Camp charity ❤️😊
