Fancy Flower Candle Snuffer, 7 1/2"

A graceful candle snuffer with a bell shaped like a flower in bloom, set with delicate simulated gems and finished in soft tones of white, purple, and green. At about seven and a half inches it is as much an ornament for the altar as a tool, and it closes a flame as cleanly as any plain snuffer.

For the practitioner who loves a beautiful altar, it makes the close of a working a small, lovely gesture.

Why Snuff a Candle

In candle work, how you end a rite matters as much as how you begin it. A common teaching holds that snuffing a candle preserves the intention you charged it with, while blowing on the flame can scatter that energy. Not every tradition agrees, but many practitioners choose a snuffer for exactly this reason, and a flower-shaped one lends a soft, blooming note to that closing gesture.

How To Use

1. Cleanse the snuffer in incense smoke or moonlight before first use, if that is part of your practice.
2. As your working draws to a close, take a breath and acknowledge the intention you set.
3. Lower the flower bell fully over the flame so it is starved of air.
4. Hold it there a second or two until the flame is out, then lift it away.
5. Let it cool and wipe it clean so it is ready for next time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the gems real?

No, they are delicate simulated gems, set for sparkle rather than as genuine gemstones.

Why use a snuffer instead of blowing out a candle?

Many traditions hold that snuffing preserves the intention you charged into a candle, while blowing can scatter that energy. A snuffer also avoids stray smoke and splattered wax.

How big is it?

About seven and a half inches long, with a flower-shaped bell, long enough to reach a standard taper or pillar comfortably.

Does it work like a plain snuffer?

Yes. Beneath the flower design it is a standard bell snuffer that smothers a flame cleanly, with the added beauty of its shape and color.

Can I cleanse it like my other tools?

Yes. Pass it through cleansing smoke such as sage or palo santo, or set it under the moon for a few hours to reset it.
