The quiet ritual of a pillar candle

Pillar candles have long been used where a flame needs presence: on dining tables, in churches, at vigils and in homes where candlelight marks a pause in the day. Their appeal is partly practical and partly symbolic. The broad wax body supports a longer burn, while…
