3" Hexagon Beeswax Pillar Candle - Pure Natural Beeswax

Return to the Gentle Glow of Candlelight

Before electric lights filled our homes, families gathered by the soft, warm glow of candlelight. Our 3" Hexagon Beeswax Pillar brings back that peaceful tradition while offering benefits that modern lighting simply can't match. This isn't just a candle – it's a way to create a more natural, calming environment in your home.

Pure, Simple Ingredients

Each Golden Hour candle is handcrafted in Millersburg, Ohio with just two ingredients:

• 100% Pure Beeswax: Golden, natural wax straight from the hive
• Unbleached Cotton Wick: Clean-burning, lead-free cotton
• Nothing Else: Zero dyes, fragrances, or additives

The Benefits of Beeswax

Natural Air Purification

Here's something remarkable: when beeswax burns, it releases negative ions into the air. These negative ions bond with positively charged particles like dust, pollen, mold, and allergens, causing them to fall to the ground rather than circulating through your home. It's nature's air purifier, working quietly while you enjoy the warm glow.

Gentle Light for Better Sleep

Unlike the blue light from LED bulbs and screens, the warm amber light from beeswax candles doesn't disrupt your body's natural circadian rhythm. Lighting candles in the evening signals to your body that it's time to wind down, supporting your natural sleep-wake cycle the way humans have experienced for thousands of years.

Clean, Long-Lasting Burn

Beeswax is one of the cleanest-burning waxes available. Unlike paraffin candles that can release toxins, our pure beeswax burns slowly and cleanly, filling your space with a subtle, natural honey scent – no artificial fragrances needed. Each 3" pillar provides approximately 30 hours of beautiful, warm light.

Creating Atmosphere

The Perfect Centerpiece

The elegant hexagon shape makes this pillar candle a beautiful focal point for your dining table, kitchen counter, or mantel. Its golden hue catches and reflects light beautifully, even when not lit.

Everyday Luxury

You don't need to save these candles for special occasions. Light them during:

• Family dinners
• Morning coffee
• Evening reading time
• Bath time relaxation
• Any moment you want to slow down and be present

The Tradition of Candlelight

For centuries, candlelight has been synonymous with comfort, peace, and togetherness. There's something primal and calming about gathering around a flame – it centers us and creates a sense of warmth that electric lighting can't replicate. Our beeswax pillars help you reclaim this simple pleasure in your modern home.

Burning Tips for Best Results

First Burn

Allow your candle to burn for at least 45-60 minutes on the first use. This helps establish an even burn pool and prevents tunneling.

Ongoing Care

• Trim the wick to 1/4" before each lighting
• Burn until the edge melts to prevent tunneling and ensure even wax consumption
• Keep away from drafts to prevent uneven burning and smoking
• Never leave unattended – always extinguish when leaving the room
• Stop burning when about 1/2" of wax remains

Safety Guidelines

• Keep away from children and pets
• Place on heat-resistant surface
• Keep away from flammable objects
• Ensure adequate ventilation
• Never touch or move while burning

FAQs

Why does beeswax cost more than other candles?

Pure beeswax is a natural, limited resource that requires more processing than synthetic waxes. The superior burn time, air-purifying properties, and clean ingredients make it worth the investment.

What should I do with leftover wax?

Don't throw it away! You can remelt leftover beeswax to create new candles, use it as a natural wood polish, or save it for craft projects. Beeswax is too valuable to waste.

Will this candle drip?

When burned properly (away from drafts, with trimmed wick), beeswax pillars typically don't drip. The wax melts into a pool and burns cleanly.

Does it really purify the air?

Yes! The negative ions released by burning beeswax have been shown to help neutralize airborne particles. Many customers report noticeable improvements in air quality.

Why does my candle look different from the photo?

Natural beeswax varies in color from pale yellow to deep golden brown depending on what flowers the bees visited. These variations are a sign of authenticity, not a defect.

Can I burn this candle every day?

Absolutely! These candles are meant to be enjoyed regularly, not saved for special occasions. Light them whenever you want to create a peaceful atmosphere.

How do I prevent tunneling?

Always burn your candle long enough for the wax to melt all the way to the edge (45-60 minutes minimum). This establishes a proper burn memory.
