Made of real wax, these round pillar candles offer all the beauty of candlelight without any of the dangers. Each candle is powered by 3 AA batteries (not included). Without the risk of a burning flame, these candles may be left unattended without fear of being knocked over by guests, children or animals. The flickering amber LED mimics an actual flame, and the look is complemented with faux drips down the side of candles.
