7/8" Bright Bronze Candle Follower for Sanctuary Candles | Koley's Inc.

A 7/8" Bright Bronze Candle Follower for Smaller Sanctuary and Altar Candles

The 7/8" Bright Bronze Candle Follower by Koley's Inc. is a practical liturgical accessory designed to fit over the top of a 7/8" sanctuary or altar candle. As the candle burns, the follower descends with the flame, shielding it from drafts, concentrating heat for a cleaner and more even burn, and catching melting wax to prevent drips on candlesticks, altar linens, and sanctuary furnishings. The bright bronze finish gives this follower a warm, polished appearance with the deeper, richer tone characteristic of bronze, complementing bright bronze candlesticks and liturgical hardware throughout the sanctuary.

This 7/8" size is designed for smaller-diameter sanctuary candles used in side altars, votive stands, and secondary sanctuary positions. Candle followers are a simple, effective way to extend candle life, reduce wax waste, and keep the sanctuary looking its best during liturgical celebrations. Please verify your candle diameter before ordering to ensure a proper fit.
