Assorted - Halloween Assorted Candle Tapers - Meri Meri

This set includes two ivory taper candles decorated with small wax shapes that evoke the season—think tiny icons pressed into the body of each candle, finished with a colored wick at the top. Each taper stands ten inches tall and burns for roughly six hours, giving you enough time to see dinner through or set the mood for an evening gathering without replacing them mid-event.

The candles are unscented, which makes them a good fit when you want visible ambiance without competing with food or other fragrances in the room. The wax embellishments add texture and visual interest, so the tapers look complete even before you strike a match. They work as functional pieces during a meal or as decorative accents on a mantel, bookshelf, or console table when you want a seasonal touch that doesn't scream costume party.

Because they're made with applied wax details rather than printed paper or adhesive labels, the surface stays intact as the candle burns down. The colored wick is a small design choice that reinforces the festive theme without overwhelming the understated ivory base. These tapers fit standard candlestick holders and pair well with other seasonal decor or with simple brass and ceramic holders that let the candles themselves be the focal point.

Once the season is over, you can store them carefully and bring them out again next year if you prefer to display them unlit. The wax icons hold up well when kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If you do burn them, the icons will gradually melt away as the candle tapers down, so plan accordingly if you want to preserve the look for multiple uses.
