Buying church candles online should be easy.
Not only is there plenty of choice when it comes to candles, there is also a good choice of church candle suppliers.
But this also presents the problem of knowing how to choose the best candles available at the best price.
With the majority of products available to purchase on the Internet the dilemma can be the wide range of prices quoted for any product type.
Is it a case of you get what you pay for and, if so, what is that extra something that you are paying for? Perhaps it is best to describe the product in question.
Quite often they are understandably confused with altar candles.
Both products generally are the same shape, this being pillars with straight sides and no taper, and being taller than they are wide.
Church candles can be found in a square shape but the big difference is that the churches contain a percentage of beeswax.
A good indication of quality in any candle is the inclusion in the product description of the words smokeless and dripless.
Clean burning candles make such a difference.
The first thing you notice is the lack of dirty smoke but as the candle burns down it is the lack of unsightly wax pouring down the side.
You may be paying a little more but you know that with a dripless product most of the wax is being used up and not wasted.
Price's church candles natural beeswax selection is certainly worth looking out for.
You would expect a company that has been in existence since 1830 to manufacture a top quality product and that is exactly what you get.
Use your imagination to display them at their best.
They look classy presented singly in a holder, or on a plate, but can look equally impressive with different heights and widths grouped together perhaps to form a dinner table centrepiece.
