Description
Our ball candles in a festive edition: gold leaf, silver leaf, metallic, mother-of-pearl and snow finishes, or classic Christmas shades. Perfect for a Christmas Eve table or a mantelpiece display.
Made in our workshop, they burn down through their centre while keeping their outer shape: the flame lights the fine wall of wax from within.

Monsieur Gommers' tips
- Always place your candle on a flat surface. We recommend using a stand to protect your furniture, especially wooden pieces. On a glass surface, you can set the candle down without a stand.
- If you would like to place your candles in a hurricane lamp, leave at least 10 centimetres between the candle and the glass. Avoid hurricane lamps that are too tall, as they can starve the flame of oxygen and put it out.
- Keep your candles at least 10 centimetres apart. This avoids hot spots that could warp them or cause dripping.
- Don’t leave the candle lit for less than 15 minutes.
- Don’t let it burn for more than 4 hours at a time: this could cause the candle to lose its shape.
- To put it out, we recommend blowing gently on the flame with your hand held behind it, to avoid splashes of liquid wax. You can also use a snuffer if you prefer. Take care not to crush or break the wick: hold the snuffer 1 to 2 cm above the flame and wait for it to go out on its own.
- Before relighting, check that the wick is no longer than 1 cm. If needed, trim it with scissors or a wick trimmer.
For all our candles
- We recommend placing your candle somewhere sheltered from draughts.
- Always keep your candles at least 10 centimetres apart, to avoid hot spots that could warp them or cause dripping.
- Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading. Our colours are vivid, and some shades may react more quickly than others.
- Never leave a lit candle unattended.
- Never move a candle while it is lit or while the wax is still liquid.
- If a small “mushroom” forms at the tip of the wick, put the candle out, let it cool, then carefully remove the ball by trimming the wick.
- To put it out, we recommend blowing gently on the flame with your hand held behind it, to avoid splashes of liquid wax.
- Before relighting, make sure the wick is no longer than 1 cm. If necessary, trim it with scissors or a wick trimmer.
- Store your candles at room temperature, away from damp.
