Stable Metal Stand for Wooden Wicks – Set of 20

If you've bought wooden wicks, this is the stand you need. Wooden wicks are sold without stands, and without one the wick doesn't stay upright in the still-soft wax and leans as you pour.

A metal stand with a wide base and four clips, in a set of 20. Base diameter 2.4 cm, height 0.7 cm. It works with all four wooden wick shapes in the range: straight, cross, wave and round.

Why we sell it separately from the wicks

Many manufacturers sell them in fixed sets. In the workshop that works out badly: a wooden wick is cut to the height of the glass and good pieces are left over for smaller candles, but the stands have run out, because they came counted with the wicks.

That is why we keep them separate. This way you use every piece of wick, and you order stands when you run out, and they run out faster than the wicks.

Sînziana says: “The stand is the piece nobody thinks about until it's missing. We've had customers who ordered wooden wicks and only found out when unpacking that they don't come with a stand. That's why we put it first on every wick page, and that's also why we keep the base wider: when you pour the hot wax, a narrow stand tips over and ruins your candle in the first minute.”

Which wicks it works with

With the whole Servus wooden range. The four clips grip the base whatever the profile:

• Straight wick 90 × 10 mm and 90 × 14 mm
• Cross (X) wick 80 × 10 mm
• Wave wick 90 × 25 mm
• Round (tube) wick 90 × 10 mm

In wider containers, where two wicks are used, you need two stands for each candle. Count them in when you order.

What we've seen in the workshop

• The wide base keeps the wick upright while you pour. A narrow stand leans while the wax is still soft, and the wick stays crooked after it sets.
• The first minutes of burning are the critical ones. That is when you see whether the base has held or not.
• It can be reused only if it hasn't been bent out of shape. Bent clips no longer grip firmly.

What this stand doesn't do

• It is NOT sold together with the wicks. The wicks are ordered separately.
• It is NOT for cotton wicks. The waxed cotton wick already comes with its own tab; this one is made for the wooden strip.
• It does NOT fix wrong sizing. It keeps the wick straight, but it doesn't change how big it burns. You choose the size from the wick's diameter range.
• It is NOT suitable for candles poured in moulds. It is designed for containers.

Dimensions

How to fit it

1. Clip the wick into the four clips before you put it in the container, with the strip centred.
2. Place the stand on the bottom of the container and check that it sits flat, not tilted.
3. Centre it before pouring. With two wicks, equally spaced from the centre.
4. Pour the wax and hold the wick upright until the layer at the base hardens.
5. Cut the wick to height only once it has set.
