Lichen, thankfully, without the wall
The ENGELS KLASSIK ribbed candle in Velvet Lacquer Flechte brings a calm, earthy green into the room and gives the colour a little more depth than you might expect from a candle. At 20 cm high and 8 cm in diameter, this pillar candle has a taller, more slender presence than the smaller versions while remaining pleasantly understated. Its vertical ribbing gives the silhouette a clear graphic rhythm, while the matt Velvet Lacquer finish absorbs light rather than reflecting it sharply. The result is a softer sense of depth that makes Flechte appear rich and quietly expressive. Made in Germany from paraffin wax, the candle is vegan, coloured throughout, dipped and handcrafted. The matt surface is also resistant to fingerprints, which is useful if you tend to move things around until the arrangement feels just right. With a burn time of around 95 hours, it is built for more than a few evenings. Long dinners, quiet Sundays, weekends with guests and, of course, Advent are all comfortably within reach.
A little more height changes the whole arrangement
At 20 cm, this ribbed candle works especially well where different heights are used to build a relaxed composition. On a sideboard, console or large dining table, it creates a clear vertical accent and can stand equally well on its own or as part of a group. Pair it with lower pillar candles or other ribbed candles for a layered look that still feels calm and considered. Flechte sits beautifully alongside natural wood, cream tableware, stoneware, glass and darker candle holders, as well as brass or brushed metal. In autumn the colour feels earthy and grounded, at Christmas it settles easily amongst greenery and wreaths, while in spring it takes on a lighter character beside pale materials. That versatility gives it the kind of staying power we rather like in a home accessory.
The finish turns light into atmosphere
Engels Kerzen has been making candles in Germany since 1933, combining traditional craftsmanship with a strong sensitivity to colour, form and surface. Velvet Lacquer is one of the brand's characteristic finishes. Its matt appearance prevents light from bouncing straight back, allowing the surface to gain visual depth instead. Together with the ribbed structure, this makes the candle feel decorative even before it is lit. The paraffin wax used is REACH-certified and selected for reliable burning characteristics. The candle itself is vegan and coloured throughout, so the tone is not merely a surface effect. At LIVOSY, it is precisely this combination of craftsmanship, material knowledge and considered design that interests us: objects that do more than decorate, and keep contributing to the atmosphere long after the first impression.
One candle that enjoys good company
The 20 cm Flechte version pairs particularly well with other sizes from the ENGELS KLASSIK ribbed candle collection. Different heights add movement, while the repeated ribbed surface keeps the overall arrangement coherent. Fine Line taper candles, classic pillar candles, sculptural object candles and understated holders or trays in metal, stone or glass all make easy companions. At Christmas, Flechte can sit amongst branches and wreaths; at a wedding, beside flowers and tableware; throughout the rest of the year, it works as a quiet green accent in the living room. Before lighting for the first time, trim the wick to approximately 1 cm and check it again before each burn. A suitable heat-resistant surface is essential, too. After that, its roughly 95-hour burn time leaves plenty of room for the candle to do what it does best: give good light while looking remarkably composed about it.
