FAQs
Will adapters show once the candle is in the holder?
Our fitters sit below the rim of the holder and are designed to be discreet or invisible during use.
Can I reuse the adapters?
Yes. Most adapters—especially sleeves and pads—are reusable. Wax rings can often be reused if kept clean and intact.
Do adapters work with antique or irregular holders?
Yes. For oversize cups or non-standard shapes, stack two wax rings or combine a sleeve with a ring to fine-tune the fit.
