When using the candle for the first time, let it burn for 2-3 hours until the wax on the surface becomes liquid. This prevents the wax from becoming hollow later on or forming a well around the wick.

When the candle is lit and even after you put it out, but the wax is still liquid, do not move it. To extinguish it, use a lid that will stop the flow of oxygen or a special candle extinguisher (snuffer).

After use, center the wick if necessary to ensure a steady consumption of the wax and to prevent overheating of the candle glass container.

The ideal wick length should be between 3 and 5 millimeters, so if you need to trim it, do so carefully with sharp scissors or (ideally) a special tool (wick trimmer). As well as causing more smoke when burning, a longer wick can also fall into the wax and significantly damage the candle.

When only 5 millimeters of wax remain or the metal wick sustainer pops off, the candle is finished and should not be re-lit.

But this moment is a new beginning for its container, which with Candele Firenze is always highly decorative, so it is up to your imagination how you will reuse it, giving it a new practical function.

To remove the remaining wax, first, use a butter knife, then pour hot water into the container (do not fill it to the top). Once the water has cooled, scoop up any wax that has floated to the surface, then pour it out, straining (to avoid spilling the wax down the drain). Finally, wash the bowl with dish detergent.
