There is a long tradition in Danish culture of using candles in the home, no doubt linked to the harsh winter climate and long, dark nights. What better way to bring warmth and light into the home and create some comfort during the Scandinavian winter than to introduce some glowing candlelight at every opportunity. Ester & Erik aim to honour the traditional craft of hand-dipped candle making in Denmark while satisfying the expectations of their discerning customers for consistently high-quality, superior product. Ester & Erik's hand-made candles can be found in exclusive design outlets across the globe where their beauty and quality are much admired and appreciated.

Ester & Erik Taper Candles are handmade and delivered to us on the original frames on which they are dipped into wax during the manufacturing process. They are designed to burn steadily, without dripping or smoking (as long as they are not exposed to a draft), and are self-extinguishing. Slim and elegant in shape, they are conical at the base so as to fit most candlesticks and are recognisable by their thin, pointed tops.
