"Angel" Silicone Mould: A Symbol of Christmas Joy
Create a delicate angel figurine that heralds the joy of Christmas with this precision mould.
Two-part silicone mould for a beeswax angel candle, with the wings and the folds of the robe in fine relief.
At 50 °C beeswax is not poured: it is solid. The supplier's sheet says to pour between 50 and 60 °C. Beeswax melts between 62 and 65, so at 50 there is nothing to pour. It is poured at 70-75 °C, with enough margin to reach the bottom of the mould still liquid.
01 · AT 50 °C WAX IS SOLID
The right range is 70-75 °C: below that the wax arrives thick and leaves cold lines; above 85 it darkens. On a figure with wings and folds, pouring cold is exactly what erases the detail you are buying this mould for.
02 · IT IS A TWO-PART MOULD
It has to be closed and held with elastic bands before pouring: otherwise the hot wax finds the seam and goes out that way. Our range has bands made for silicone moulds at €1.61; it costs nothing to keep some at hand.
Pour slowly and tap the mould a few times straight after: the texture of the robe traps air easily, and those bubbles stay on the visible face.
03 · THE WINGS BREAK ON UNMOULDING
Wait until the wax is completely cold and hard before taking the bands off and opening it. Unmoulding in a hurry snaps the tips of the feathers, which are the finest part of the piece and the first thing anyone looks at.
04 · BEFORE YOU BUY
70-75 °C, bands on, and unmould cold.
