Candle molds were a variety of mold designed specifically for the shaping of candles from tallow or wax.[1][3]
Description[]
Sometimes made of wood,[3][4] these molds varied in the length, quantity,[1][3] and style of candles they could produce.[3]
Availability[]
- Aurora's Whole Realms Catalogue sold a particularly large candle mold at a price of 12 silver pieces. It could make eighteen tallow or wax candles at a time, all measuring 4 feet (1.2 meters) in length, but required 1 pound (450 grams) of either material. The Catalogue lauded them as being favored among innkeepers and custodial priests and advertised them as being capable of keeping a mansion fully stocked.[1]
Notable Users[]
- The Glow Shoppe, a store in Ravens Bluff that sold various light sources, kept candle molds in its backroom so that Sul Loman could make the tallow and wax candles they sold.[5]
- Gulmarin Reldacap, Lord High Smith and Artificer of the House of Gond in Essembra, was a brilliant inventor who made advancements in candle mold designs.[6]
- The Sharrans of Vanrakdoom used candle molds to create the black wax candles they used all throughout the temple.[4]
