Do you know how the candle factory makes beautiful carved candles?

German carved candles with a history of 642 years cost thousands of dollars. Carved candles are famous for their difficult manufacturing process, and no country can imitate them so far. So how is this candle made?

First of all, the sculptor will prepare colorful hot wax and stir it constantly to prevent them from solidifying together. Then put the new wax core into transparent hot wax, and then put it into yellow hot wax. The transparent wax will be diluted by yellow hot wax and finally harden in cold water. Then put the heart-shaped wax core into hot wax of various colors again. This process requires repeated carving for 35 times to dye the wax core with colored wax of different colors. With constant soaking, candles will become softer and softer. In the process of soaking, the sculptor will cut a groove on the outside of the candle, and then continue to put the candle in hot wax.

Second, in this soaking process, the sculptor should always observe the temperature of the candle. If the temperature is too high, the candle will be too soft to carve, while if the temperature is too low, the candle will break. Before carving, the sculptor will squeeze the candle at the bottom and cut it off with a knife. These cut colored candles will be made into mushroom candles. It's time to start carving candles. Carving candles should be completed within 15 minutes, otherwise once the candles are hardened, they cannot be carved. The sculptor cut the candle below into leaves and rolled it in one direction. Then put the candle in water to cool it to prevent the leaves from being deformed.

Thirdly, the process of making the first layer of blades will be used to make the other three layers of blades, and each layer of blades needs to be rolled in the opposite direction to the previous layer. Until the last leaf is carved, it will paste it with its middle finger. Now the sculptor is carving the shape of a windmill on the top of the candle with a square drilling tool. Then use the cut candles to make the deck of the windmill. The sculptor will decorate the upper part of the candle with tulips and other patterns. In this process, nothing can happen, we must be fast, accurate and stable. Carve it in place with a knife. It takes at least three to five years of training to have such superb skills.

Fourthly, the sculptor gently put the straight-edged knife in his hand to carve lifelike hummingbirds and swans. Now, he presses an annular cutter around the top wick, so that the lighted hot wax can drip in the middle to avoid damaging the beautiful patterns outside. Next, put the bottom of the candle in a hot pot, rotate it to make it smooth, and put a trademark label on it while it is hot. Finally, the candle is soaked in acrylic resin to form a barrier to protect the candle. After the candle is lit, the flame will pass through the wax core and emit beautiful light.
