Price's Patent Candle Company began manufacturing candles
in 1830. By the end of the century the company was the largest
maker of candles in the world. It made stearine candles
that burned as well as more expensive beeswax candles and
held 114 patents for its inventions. Later the introduction
of mass production enabled Price's to dominate the nightlight
market. By 1859 Price's were producing 130 differently named
and specific sizes of candle. Between 1910 and 1912 Price's
took over two London manufacturers, Francis Tucker and Charles
Farris, suppliers to the Catholic and Anglican churches.
Both companies survive today as trademark names used by
Price's for their beeswax church candles. Price's have a
long and close association with the Royal Family from the
time when the launch of their new composite candle coincided
with the wedding of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Today
it holds 4 Royal Warrants. Two in its own name for The Queen
and The Prince of Wales and, two in the name of Charles
Farris, for The Queen and, until recently, The Queen Mother.
This special royal status means it supplies candles for
all Royal state occasions. Here we present Price's Heritage
range of dinner candles - classic high-quality candles made
of Stearine and Beeswax, beautifully packaged in the the
same box as their Victorian originals. We offer 3 beautiful
sets of some of the finest candles available, suitable for
gracing the the most lavish of banquets - an ideal gift.
