European candles of antiquity were made from various forms of natural fat, tallow, and wax. In Ancient Rome, candles were made of tallow due to the prohibitive cost of beeswax. It is possible that they also existed in Ancient Greece, but imprecise terminology makes it difficult to determine. nIn the Middle Ages in Europe, tallow candles were the most common candle. By the 13th century, candle making had become a guild craft in England and France. The candle makers (chandlers) went from house to house making candles from the kitchen fats saved for that purpose, or made and sold their own candles from small candle shops. Beeswax, compared to animal-based tallow, burned cleanly, without smoky flame. Rather than the foul and terrible odor of tallow, it emits a fresh smell. Beeswax candles were expensive, and relatively few people could afford to burn them in their homes in medieval Europe. However, they were widely used for church ceremonies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct information\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e- Colour: Ivory \u003cbr\u003e- Size: 150mm x 150mm \u003cbr\u003e- Wick: x3 \u003cbr\u003e- Box Quantity: x1\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manchester Candle Co Ltd NEW BANK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52005669339476,"sku":"CANMAM150\/150","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/1247\/9572\/files\/bolsius-mammoth-candle-ivory-150x150mm.webp?v=1749418221","url":"https:\/\/lothiansupplycompany-trade.co.uk\/products\/bolsius-mammoth-candle-ivory-150-150","provider":"Lothian Supply Wholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
