You can now breathe a little easier with our paraffin-free votive. This classic utility candle is made from 100% palm wax and contains no additives. The wick is pure cotton and contains no lead or metal of any kind. Like any votive candle, ours is designed to melt and fill its holder with molten wax. Make sure to use a holder just wide enough to fit the votive. These unscented votive candles will burn long and bright without harmful smoke or soot. Going green with candlelight just got affordable.
