Product Insights
Simons Maison's Lacquered Twisted Candles Set of 2 ($15 CAD) combines a glossy, dust-repelling lacquer shell that preserves the twisted shape and resists scratches with unscented paraffin wax that, according to a 2007 study, burns as cleanly as soy or beeswax. The 0.85-inch base fits standard holders, and the design is exclusive to Simons Maison, designed in Canada. In-person colors are deeper and more vivid than online images may suggest, and the non-porous finish facilitates easy dust removal without wax loss. The trade-off is between budget-friendly taper candles and more expensive beeswax spirals; while the lacquered paraffin delivers shine, shape protection, and clean burning, the online color representation may understate the actual richness.
Verified claims
- Hardness
- Lacquer forms a hard shell that resists dents and stabilizes the twist.
- Dust resistance
- Non-porous lacquer surface repels dust and resists fingerprints.
- Burn performance
- The lacquered finish may reduce wax drips compared with uncoated candles and is designed for clean burning, with no reports of increased smoking.
- Storage
- Store upright and wrap separately to preserve lacquer and shape.
- Holder compatibility
- 0.85-inch diameter base fits standard taper holders.
- Shape preservation
- The lacquer cures harder than the paraffin and stabilizes the twisted shape against gravity and temperature softening, helping the candle keep its sculptural helix.
- Appearance quality
- Lacquer finish repels dust and ensures uniform color and gloss.
- Indoor air safety
- A 2007 study found well-made paraffin candles emit the same combustion byproducts as soy or beeswax, all well below indoor-air safety limits.
- Price positioning
- $15 CAD pair fits between $5 budget pairs and $12–32 beeswax spirals.
- Design exclusivity
- Simons Maison exclusive designed in Canada.
- Material quality
- Lacquered paraffin delivers shine, shape protection, and clean burning.
- Color in person
- The glossy lacquer can make colors appear slightly deeper in person, with appearance also varying due to monitor settings and lighting.
- Online color accuracy
- Online images may understate richness due to monitor and lighting variation.
- Color consistency
- Paraffin accepts lacquers and dyes without the blooming or frosting common to soy, so the twisted colors keep a uniform high gloss.
- Color durability
- Lacquer resists dust and scratches, preserving color over time.
- Cleaning
- A dry 100% polyester microfiber cloth removed 89–94% of surface dust in lab testing on candle wax without wax loss.
- Lacquer finish
- Glossy lacquer provides a hard, dust-repelling shell that preserves the sculptural twist.
- Scent-free
- The candle is unscented and scent-free, eliminating fragrance oil emissions and keeping the burn more benign for dining or bedside atmospheres.
- Emissions
- The unscented paraffin formulation eliminates the fragrance oil emission stream and burns below indoor-air safety limits in a ventilated space.
- Design story
- Simons Maison exclusive tag signals a curated, design-forward private-label candle.
- Holder fit
- Base diameter 0.85 inches with straight lower section fits standard taper holders.
- Candle height
- Each candle in this set is a 10-inch tall taper.
- Color options
- This candle set is available in White and Orange.

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Lacquered Twisted Candles Set Of 2: Choose this if you want a pair of decorative, unscented taper candles for styling a table or shelf: each candle is 10 inches tall and about 0.85 inches in diameter, made of 100% paraffin wax, with a high-gloss lacquered finish over a twisted spiral profile. They are sold as a set of 2 in Orange or White, and are a Simons Maison exclusive designed in Canada.[1,2,3] | Long Twisted Candles Set Of 2: Choose these for decorative, scentless taper candles: each set of 2 is 100% paraffin wax, about 0.75 inches in diameter by 11.25 inches high, with a spiral-twisted profile offered in Charcoal, Off White, Taupe, and Green. Reviewers praise the elegant sculptural look for holiday and party table settings, but note the candles are not dripless—wax can pool and stain surfaces, so use protective plates—and the thin wax means some arrive cracked or warped, making shipping as a gift risky. They are also thinner than standard, so the fit may lean in many candleholders.[4,5] | Patterned Elongated Candles Set Of 2: Choose this if you want decorative, scentless 100% paraffin taper candles for styling neutral or plain candlestick holders — the set of two slender white candles with evenly spaced black polka dots measures about 0.75 inches (2 cm) in diameter and 10 inches (25 cm) tall, with tapered tips and a smooth, glossy finish. Reviewers found the cute pattern a popular gifting pick and a lively pop for neutral decor. Note the true white base may not suit creamier vintage or ecru palettes, the candles need a firm shove to fit standard taper holders with exact sizing so they may not suit delicate or narrow holders, and since reviewers largely haven't burned them, burn time, dripping, and safety when lit are unknown.[6,7] |
