Why Is My Candle Flame Flickering?

Candle flicker - good or bad?

The soft flicker of a candle flame creates a peaceful mood and atmosphere, perfect for relaxation, especially when paired with our candles, which come with crackling wooden wicks. Light and sound in harmony! All candles flicker, but this flickering should not be excessive. At best, you lose the natural candle ambience, at worst, the candle can become a fire hazard.

Why do candles flicker?

There are many reasons why candles flicker, some of which are simply the normal way a candle flame works. A candle flame is not a steady source of light, but a dynamic and ever-changing phenomenon. Candle flickering is a normal phenomenon for candles, unless the flickering is excessive. So why do candles flicker?

When the wax in a candle melts, the wax is drawn to the wick by what is known as capillary action. The heat of the flame then vaporizes the wax, forming a mixture of wax vapor and air that ignites from the heat of the flame. This creates an area of hot, glowing gas that rises above the wick.

However, the flame is not completely steady and can be affected by many factors, such as the movement of air currents in the room, the shape of the wick, and the composition of the wax. These factors cause the flame to fluctuate and jump, resulting in the typical candle flicker we see.
Additionally, as hot air rises, it cools and mixes with cooler air, causing it to contract and become denser. This creates air currents, which causes the flame to flicker even more.
Overall, the flicker of a candle flame is a complex phenomenon that results from the interaction of many different factors, which is one of the reasons why candles are such a fascinating and fascinating light source.
