With an endless variety of pillar candle styles available, you can create a unique decorative element that truly is all your own. Short and fat combine with tall and thin to create interesting combinations of decorative elements. Let your imagination run wild when styling with pillar candles.

Take advantage of pillar candle simplicity

One of the great attributes of pillar candles is their simplistic design. Often they'll stand alone without an extensive candle holder system. Always be sure to burn your candles on heat resistant surfaces. Choose a simple candle tray with raised edges to insure a safe surface for candle burning.

Try this Bartlett Pear Aromatherapy Candle, as shown at right. Juicy and irresistible, the unusual pear blend is both familiar and intriguing. The pear is a sublime gift, representing the joy of summer and life, as well as symbolizing deep affection. Our Ripe Bartlett Pear essence is a tribute to a fruit that holds the scent of summer's end in its juicy flesh.

An assortment of colors to suit your fancy

Pillar candles are available in an unlimited variety of colors. Group differing sizes in complimentary colors to achieve a one-of-kind look. Browse the Northern Lights pillar candle collection for a variety of colors, sizes and scents. We've featured a few of our favorite scents in the images below. Click individual photos for additional information.

Coordinate your candle color selection with variations on your wall paint. Pick up some complimentary paint sample chips to help decide which colors best fit your mood.

Don’t get hung up on exact matching of colors. It’s often more exciting and dramatic to choose complimentary or contrasting colored pillar candles when designing your candle centerpiece or candle presentation.

Have fun with shapes and textures

Be sure to shop through the many distinct shapes of pillar candles. We suggest this beautiful 3 x 6 inch fluted wedding candle, shown at right.

The secret to long-lasting, even-burning pillar candles is the fluted and hollow-core design of this column candle. Candles of this exceptional "honeycomb" design are a real favorite of pillar candle buyers.

Pillar candles also come in a variety of textures and finishes. Smooth and sleek candles combine well with rougher and unusually modeled finishes.

Exotic colors applied to deeply sculptured wax pillars create this intriguing 4 x 6 inch Zimbali candle that burns 100 to 120 hours, shown at left.

The entire Zimbali unscented pillar candle collection is made with translucent wax. They glow beautifully when lit and have corked bottoms to protect surfaces. 

We also recommend the Timber Brown Sugar Candles - Unscented, as shown at right. These unscented candles come in warm soothing colors, burn beautifully and look as if they are straight out of nature with their rustic appearance. Their bright colors make a great statement indoors or out. They come uniquely wrapped with a palm leaf tied with a bamboo skin string.

Pillar candles come in an endless variety of sizes and shapes. Keep your guests entertained by selecting unusual pillar candle styles.
