PADDYWAX Tapered Twisted Candles. Suited perfectly to gift or for everyday entertaining, this set of two Paddywax Twist Taper Candles is a fun and trendy way to add flickering light and a pop of color to any mantel, dinner table, or celebration! 2 count of twisted taper candles, 10" H. Trim wick prior to burning. The burn time of our candles varies depending on the vessel and the environment in which the candle is burning. But as a rule of thumb: every ounce of wax gives 6-7 hours of burn time. So an 8 oz. candle would last up to 56 hours!. Unscented.
