The votive lumines represent the "brightness", the light that illuminates the path of the dead. Usuality teaches us to: turn on votive lumens around the deceased is linked to the idea of the end of earthly life. The extinction of the votive lumine leads to the death of the deceased. Italy boasts a rich funeral tradition that has its origins in Roman times, where the idea is developed through the votive lights to illuminate the path of our loved ones to the afterlife.

BLOG -Notes for using candles.

• For better combustion, shorten the wicks at about 5 mm before turning on.
• The candles are sensitive to light and temperature.
• Spegnere le candele soffocando la fiamma con un apposito spegni candela o annegare la fiamma piegando lo stoppino nella cera fusa, riportare poi lo stoppino nella posizione verticale. Eviterete inutile fumo e odore di stoppino bruciato, inoltre lo stoppino sarà ben cerato e pronto per una nuova accensione.

When storing candles for a long time, remember to keep them in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and fluorescence lamps. Candles exposed to excessive heat can break, hot excess candles can deform or melt. When buying candles, remember not to leave them in the car on hot days.
