Wick for kerosene lamp 6″

Making candles is an ancient craft. STHLM’s candle workshop on Södermalm, in Per-Anders Fogelström’s neighborhood and where Liljeholmens Ljusfabrik once stood, carries on the tradition.

Great care is taken to ensure that the candles feel genuine. When the candle mass is warm, the antique candles are carefully molded and shaped by hand.

The long burning time and beautiful flame are the result of the right mix of stearin, paraffin, wax and wick yarn.

Burner tubes made of specially tempered and heat-resistant clear glass for our kerosene lamps.

Clear glass. Round burner tube 6”’. Length 130mm, diameter 34 mm.

Traditional hand molded pillar candle. When the candle mass is hot, the branch candle is molded and shaped by hand. The long burning time and beautiful flame are the result of the right mix of stearin, paraffin, wax and wick yarn.

Comes in a nice white cardboard box from STHLMS Ljusstöperi with a traditional woven ribbon tied around the candle base.

The kerosene lamp is equipped with a round burner whose design is based on the patent of the Swiss Aimé Argand, where the richly perforated gallery and the airy design of the wick cone allow an abundant supply of oxygen that provides a very efficient combustion that results in a 6-15 times stronger brightness compared to lace wick burners.
