The original version of the Candle by the Hour® was invented in the 1600's. America had an abundance of beeswax they crafted into unique rope candles. Called "Courting Candles," the rope was thread notched at a measured length: likeable young gentlemen suitors visiting a young girl got the "long rope" while less desirable guests got the "short rope." When the flame reached the clip and extinguished, it was time for the guest to go home. To use this modern Candle by the Hour Horizontal Candle, simply feed the beeswax coil candle through the patented clip in 2" portions or less. This 100% beeswax candle self-extinguishes when the flame reaches the clip. This Candle by the Hour Horizontal Candle is shaped like a ball and features a metal coppertone stand with an elegant wick holder. 60-hour burn time.
