"The Star Candles" is a beautifully engineered and highly visual multiplying candle effect designed for the professional magician.
The effect is exceptionally clean: both sides of each candle can be shown, and the candles may be freely separated throughout the routine. Each candle is carefully designed and hand-crafted by our friend Tim Star from Sweden.
The candles measure 10 cm in height and are constructed entirely from solid brass for durability and long-term use. Each candle is first coated with an epoxy primer and then finished with a high-quality white urethane paint, the same type used in automotive finishes.
Star Candles are typically produced for the right hand, but left-handed versions are available upon request.
Supplied complete with detailed videoinstructions and a practical carrying bag.
The "Multiplying Nested Candles" make a perfect companion to the Star Candles and greatly expand the visual impact of the routine.
The Effect
The magician displays a single burning candle. Suddenly, a second candle appears… then a third… and finally a fourth—each candle burning brightly.
Every time a candle is produced, it is passed from hand to hand and shown from all angles. The candles appear from nowhere, one by one. At the conclusion of the routine, the candles are removed individually, with the final candle transforming into a silk.
For an even more spectacular climax, the performer may continue by producing a set of Nested Candles, resulting in a total of eight burning candles for a stunning, glowing presentation.
A powerful, elegant, and highly visual effect that truly enhances the mystique of the magician and leaves a lasting impression on any audience.
