Tall, slender, and truly beautiful hand-dipped taper candles, produced in Denmark since 1971. The candles are made using the classic method, where the wick is dipped repeatedly into warm wax until the candle slowly takes on its shape, height, and fine surface.

It is a small craft in itself. Because the candles are hand-dipped, there may be small variations from candle to candle – and this is precisely what gives them their vibrant and somewhat more unique expression.

The long 45 cm candles do something truly special for a table. They draw lines upwards, add height to the table setting, and make even a simple candlestick feel more elegant. Use them for dinners, parties, holidays, or just an ordinary evening when you want a little more color and atmosphere on the table.

The candles are solid-colored, so the color is not just on the surface. They are made from fully refined paraffin, which provides a clean and calm burn. The long burn time of approximately 20 hours also makes them very practical — especially when you want tall candles that don't burn down after one dinner.

At DORA, we love them precisely for their colors. They can be classic and calm in ivory, white, or brown — or wonderfully festive in yellow, pink, blue, green, or red. Mix several colors on the table, or keep it simple with one color in all the candlesticks.
