Hand-Dipped Beeswax Tapers – 7" For centuries, beeswax candles brought light to New England homes, from quiet mornings in the kitchen to long evenings gathered around the table. Hand-dipped one layer at a time, they remain one of the simplest and most beautiful traditions to carry into the present. Each pair of our 7-inch tapers is made using the traditional hand-dipping method. Cotton wicks are dipped again and again into warm, pure beeswax, allowing each layer to cool before the next is added. Over time, the candle slowly takes shape, just as it has for generations. Made in small batches with pure beeswax sourced from a local honey farm, every pair is unique. Natural variations in color from soft cream to warm golden yellow, and subtle differences in shape reflect the flowers visited by the bees and the handcrafted nature of each candle. Whether used for everyday meals, holiday gatherings, a quiet evening at home, or simply to bring a warm glow to your space, these tapers celebrate the timeless comfort of candlelight.

Like all things made by hand, no two pairs are exactly alike—and that's part of their story.
