pillar candle
Self-supporting wax light
A pillar candle is a thick, freestanding candle designed to burn without a holder or container.
Unlike tapers or votives, pillar candles are sturdy enough to stand on their own, typically cylindrical with a flat base: She arranged pillar candles of varying heights on the mantel.
The term distinguishes them from candles requiring cups or candlesticks.
