CANDWAX 10 inch Taper Candles Set of 4 - Halloween Taper Candles Unscented - Tall Candles Long Burning Perfect as Black Halloween Decorations or Dinner Candles – Coal Black Candles

They are soft unlike the other ones I got that broke easily, I took one star away only because not all of them were black. One came in gray, light black color.

On the outside they look black but they are a dark green color on the inside.

I am very pleased with these candles. They arrived safely in a well padded box laying on a cushion of protective small bubble wrapping in perfect shape. I purchased the candles to complete a Christmas centerpiece that I made for the holidays. I actually wanted 6 inch candles but I couldn't find any so I purchased these 8 inch candles and cut off 2 inches off of the bottoms. Even with me cutting them they still fit very firmly and snugly in my candle holders because the taper is towards the middle and top and not the bottoms. I did buy a stickum substance to aide in securing candles should they wobble or not fit well in their candle holders but I didn't even need it because of the very tight fit I had. Plus I don't burn these anyways; they are for holiday centerpieces that will never be lit. The candles seem to be a very nice quality. When I cut 2 inches off of mine they cut cleanly off with a common utility type razor blade and they inserted nice and very snug in my candle holders. I'm so pleased with how my centerpiece came out - not too bad for an elderly guy who has never made one before. I plan on making a few more so I'll be ordering some more of these candles and this time I'll try some red candles to change up the color. If I have to cut them down in length a bit I know it can be done easily and that they will still fit nice and tightly in my holders. In case anyone might be interested, the candle holders are made by Spode in England and the sleigh is from a Lenox Christmas collection from a few years ago. The pieces look so good together that they appear to be from a matched set. I just love my centerpiece! Here's a photo of it so maybe it will inspire others with ideas and wishes to make a few too. All of the craft materials were purchased here on Amazon; floral foam, little and very realistic looking pine sprigs, small pine cones and red holly berry stems. Even the double-sided floral tape, all here on Amazon. If you do purchase these candles I think you'll be just as happy with them as I am.

The candles were the perfect height and color I was looking for. It’s very hard to find 14” candles. So I am very happy!
