Held Within is a delicately sculpted mother-and-child silhouette, encased in gentle flowing lines that represent warmth, protection, and unconditional love.

Whether you're a candle making pro or a beginner, this mould is easy to use and creates beautiful results. This mould is exclusive to Myka Candles & Moulds and hand-poured in Australia using premium platinum-cure silicone. Platinum-cure silicone is tear-resistant and can withstand temperatures up to 230°C. Unlike regular moulds, moulds made with platinum-cure silicone are long-lasting and can have a shelf life of over 30 years. To use, wick the mould through the top and bottom, ensuring it taut and centred. Pour in melted wax and allow your candle to cure overnight before carefully unmoulding. For best results, preheat your mould with a heat gun prior to pouring to ensure the wax fills in all the crevices and prevent air bubbles getting trapped. Specifications Finished product: 15cm (H) x 10cm (W) x 5cm (L) Wax volume: 340g Cotton wick recommendation: 12 ply All measurements are approximate and will vary depending on the type of wax used and how much fragrance oil is added. Mould Perfomance & Storage The physical life of the mould depends on how you use it (materials cast, frequency, etc.). Casting abrasive materials such as concrete can quickly erode mould detail, while casting non-abrasive materials, such as wax, will not affect mould detail. Do not over-stretch or use any abrasive tools or fingernails when demoulding. Before storing, the mould should be cleaned with a soap solution and fully dry. Moulds should be stored on a level surface in a cool, dry environment to maintain its original shape. Disclaimer: our moulds are poured and trimmed by hand and therefore may have some minor exterior imperfections.
