With increased focus on the health risks associated with candles, I pay close attention to the quality of the candles I use. My choice is Timber pillar candles made from food-grade paraffin, which is completely purified of impurities and has an average soot percentage of 0.01. The result is candles that are virtually free of harmful particles, with a clear glow (thanks to a 100% cotton wick) and a very long burn time.
The candles have been tested by the renowned SGS Laboratory in France, which has certified them as asthma- and allergy-friendly.

Important: To achieve the longest burn time, it is important—especially the first time—to burn the candle all the way to the edge. Afterwards, the paraffin can be folded in as the candle burns down.
