A votive candle or prayer candle is a small candle, typically white or beeswax yellow, intended to be burnt as a votive offering in the act of Christian prayer, especially within the Anglican, Lutheran, and Roman Catholic Christian denominations, among others. In Christianity, votive candles are commonplace in many churches, as well as home altars, and symbolize the "prayers the worshipper is offering for him or herself, or for other people." The size of votive candle is often two inches tall by one and a half inches in diameter, although other votive candles can be significantly taller and wider. In other religions, such as Hinduism and Buddhism, similar offerings exist, which include diyas and butter lamps. 5-DAY PRODUCTION TIME 8-14 DAY DELIVERY Note: Call for wholesale pricing.
