Timber Pillar Candles: Holly

The Vance Kitira brand was established in 1993 in the Thai province of Rayong by the forester Vance Kitira. Vance made his first candles inside bamboo – this provided the special structure which to this day is the signature of all Timber Candles® and also explain the pantented and recognizable bamboo strip which is tied around all the Timber Candles®. Apart from using the bamboo to make the candles Vance Kitira also made a significant choice in this business when chosing to use food grade paraffin to create his candles. A paraffin which is purified and cleansed for impure particles intended for use in the food industry and considered by many to be to good a quality for candle production. However the choice was easy for Vance Kitira as human health and nature are his first priority and has a special meaning.

Timber® Candles are known throughout the industry as the original hand-poured, distress-textured candles. They display a warm glow and boast phenomenally long burn times. The fully-refined, food-grade paraffin wax has been hydro treated to remove impurities and color. The result is a wax that is water clear, odorless and smokeless during burning. We use only 100% cotton wicks from the U.S. and fine dyes from Germany.Our Timber® Candles have been tested by the independent SGS Laboratory in France. We are pleased to announce that the results have confirmed that our candles are indeed clean.
