Monsieur Gommers' tips
- This model is a perfect fit for Nagel candlesticks and their reissues.
- La Rétro is a more delicate candle that needs extra care when you place it in a candlestick. We recommend holding it by the base and gently twisting it as you push it in. This anchors it firmly in the holder.
- Make sure the candle stands perfectly straight to prevent any dripping.
- Don’t leave the candle lit for less than 15 minutes.
- Once the candle has burned down to 1 cm above its bevel, it has reached its end. Put it out and do not try to relight it.
- Keeping them in their original box is one of the best ways to preserve their shape and colour.
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.
