Wine Vessel Types Explained

Previously, we have offered two versions of our Wine Bottle candles - a Cheeky domed base and a Flat base, both of which have a 50+ hour burn time. 

Currently, we only have Cheeky wine bottle candles with dome bases avbailable. They are easy to spot by the dome in their base called a 'punt' or 'kick-up'. These are a bit Cheeky because they don't allow the candle to burn all the way to the bottom with the wick base sitting on the dome. We are unable to attach the wick on the side of the dome due to the danger of the flame being too close to the glass. Cheekies will always have a few centimetres of wax left around the dome, but just remember the majority of this space is a hollow void underneath. These are most widely loved for their large diameter and feature a beautiful, thick green glass. This means we can use more types of wine bottles and re-direct them from landfill to have a second life as candle. Many of our custoemrs love to utilise the leftover wax from around the dome in their wax / melt burners.

Our Mojo 'Flatties' or Flat based wine bottles (not currently available) had a flat base with a narrower diameter than Mojo's usual wider-look 'Cheeky' domed wine bottle vessels. Flatties tend to have thinner glass but will leave little to no wax left over. These were much more broken to breakage in transit though.

So in addition to differing wick sizes and pour heights, the characteristics of both vessel types equal out so that all the vessels have a 50+ burn time! 

Mojo customers and stockists will automatically recieve Cheeky Domed-based vessels,

These candles are divine. I've only used this and the Kakadu plum, so bar but both are RICH with scent, and im in love with the reused wine bottle concept. Every time I find a candle I like, they get discontinued or are American. So pleased I found mojo :)

Fresh and beautiful

This is my all time favorite candle. This brand has an incredible burn time and just lasts. Unlike some candle brands you can actually smell the Mojo Brand, the fragrance gently lingers throughout my home and sometimes it reminds me of the smell of a fresh forest. It’s unlike any fragrance I have purchased and I am have bought many over the years.

Awww, thank you so much, Janet!!! We really appreciate such a lovely review!!! We're so happy that you're so happy!!!! =D Thanks again and have an awesome day!
