Our candles are hand-poured - minor variations and imperfections are proof of this and are a quality feature :) Fine hairline cracks on the surface are inherent to the material, due to the relatively hard nature of the wax, and do not impair burning. Rapeseed wax is the hardened oil of the rapeseed plant, which grows throughout Europe. To improve melting properties, the hardened rapeseed oil is mixed with a small proportion of chemical specialty waxes - it contains no paraffin. This proportion is so small that most rapeseed wax candle manufacturers do not even mention it.
Candles work with the element of fire; never leave them burning unattended and only use fireproof bases. For the initial burn, it's best to let the candle burn until the top wax pool has melted all the way to the edge. If the candle ever smokes, it is advisable to trim the wick before lighting (carefully cut off the top, leaving at least 8 mm).
