Slender 1/2" tapers for a minimalist table — 10 candles per bundle.

Color
Quantity

Slender, tall and hand-dipped in 100% pure beeswax, these thin taper candles bring candlelight to the table without crowding it. At just 1/2" wide they add glow, not bulk — guests see each other across the table, not a wall of wax — and one bundle of 10 is enough to line a long harvest table or give every place setting its own flame.

Each 12" candle burns for about 6 hours, right-sized for a long dinner, so every gathering this season starts with fresh, full-height tapers. They're just as lovely on their own for meditation, prayer and ceremony, grouped in a bowl of sand, or standing in our solid brass thin taper holders.

  • 10 candles per bundle (5 pairs), 12" tall × 1/2" at the base
  • About 6 hours of burn time per candle — roughly 30 minutes per inch
  • 100% pure beeswax with a cotton wick, hand-dipped in western Colorado, where we've made candles since 1991
  • Fits our solid brass taper holders

Setting a bigger table? Mix them with our standard-width beeswax tapers for a layered look.

Thin vs. Standard Tapers

Thin Tapers Standard Tapers
Width 1/2" 7/8"
Height 12" 8", 10", 12" or 16"
Burn time ~6 hours per 12" candle (30 min/inch) ~12 hours per 12" candle (1 hr/inch)
Candles per pack 10 2 (single pair) or 8 (4-pair bundle)
Cost per candle About half that of standard tapers About double, with roughly double the burn time
Holders Thin holders, sand, or chime/ vintage holders for 1/2" tapers All standard candlestick holders
Best for Long tables, clusters, minimalist décor, one dinner per candle One candle lasting several evenings

 

Choose thin for more flames per dollar, a lighter look, and candles sized to a single gathering. Choose standard if you'd rather one candle carry you through several evenings — shop standard beeswax taper pairs or the 4-pair bundle.

Dimensions & Care

  • 12" tall × 1/2" at the base. Sold in bundles of 5 pairs (10 candles).
  • Burn time: about 6 hours per candle, roughly 30 minutes per inch.
  • Always place taper candles in a fitted holder and use caution — the holder may become hot at the end of the burn.
  • To avoid drips, trim the wick to 1/4" before first light and do not trim after that (the long wick prevents drips). Burn out of drafts and use a snuffer to gently extinguish the flame.
  • These thin candles are delicate and malleable. They can be bent into a variety of shapes, if desired, but please note this may cause them to drip or burn unevenly.
  • Never leave a burning candle unattended.

Beautiful Pink Beeswax!

The most beautiful light pink beeswax tapers! I bought them in both regular and thin. The thin tapers worked in our Waldorf birthday ring. So gorgeous on the table and they burn so evenly with that dreamy beeswax scent. Bluecorn is my new fairy candle maker!

Hi there I’m looking to get 12 of the thin taper candles in moss I see the bundle of 10 but didn’t see any option for just buying two is this a possibility? I need 12 for a Yule log thank you!

Bluecorn Candles

Hi Tucker,
Thanks so much for reaching out! At this time, our Thin Beeswax Taper Candles are only sold in packs of 10, so unfortunately we don’t have a way to purchase just two additional candles separately. I'm really sorry about that!
I hope this helps, and please let us know if you have any other questions.
Warmly,
Jennifer
