Create a distinctive freestanding candle inspired by the HaEsh Sheli flame motif. This silicone candle mold forms a sculptural flame silhouette with flowing openwork details rising from an integrated rectangular pedestal, giving the finished candle a strong Judaica-inspired presence while remaining visually clean and contemporary.
The open sections running through the flame are the defining feature of this design. They create layers of curved, flame-like lines rather than a conventional solid pillar, while the broad pedestal helps the finished candle stand upright for display.
Key Features
- HaEsh Sheli Flame Design: Creates a recognizable sculptural flame silhouette with flowing internal flame details.
- Openwork Candle Form: Multiple narrow openings create depth and movement through the front of the finished candle.
- Integrated Pedestal: A rectangular base is formed as part of the candle for a freestanding display.
- Single Sculptural Design: The differently colored finished candles shown in the images are examples made from the same mold rather than separate variants.
- Flexible Silicone: Allows the mold to be gradually peeled away after the wax has fully cooled and hardened.
- Image-Provided Wax Reference: Approximately 158 g of wax is shown for the finished design.
Distinctive Openwork Flame Detail
Unlike a conventional solid flame-shaped candle, this design contains several narrow curved openings through the main body. These channels form the characteristic layered flame appearance and make the candle visually interesting from different angles.
Because some areas between the openings are relatively narrow, allow the candle to harden completely before demolding. Work progressively around the flame rather than pulling on the thin internal sections.

Basic Use Guidance
- Place the mold upright and securely supported on a level surface before pouring.
- Prepare and pour your wax according to the recommendations for your chosen wax formulation.
- For molded candles, choose a wax formulated to produce a sufficiently rigid freestanding candle.
- Allow the wax to cool and harden thoroughly before attempting removal.
- During demolding, gradually peel the silicone away from the outer flame shape first, then work carefully around the narrow openwork sections.
- Avoid pulling directly on thin flame bridges or detailed internal areas.
- Complete proper wick and burn testing before using, gifting or selling finished candles.
Wick size, fragrance load, pouring temperature and cooling time depend on your wax formulation and finished candle dimensions. Follow your wax, wick and fragrance manufacturers' recommendations and complete proper burn testing before using or selling finished candles.
Care and Storage
Clean the mold gently after use and allow it to dry completely before storage. Avoid knives, pins or other sharp tools around the narrow flame channels, as these can damage the silicone. Store the mold without prolonged crushing or distortion so that the detailed internal sections retain their shape.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does this mold create?
It creates a freestanding sculptural flame candle with flowing openwork sections through the main body and an integrated rectangular pedestal base.
Are the beige and gray candles different designs?
No. The product images show the same HaEsh Sheli flame design made in different colors. This listing contains one mold design.
How large is the finished candle?
The supplied images show a finished height of approximately 13.9 cm (5.47 inches) and a width of approximately 8.6 cm (3.39 inches).
How much wax does the candle require?
The product image lists approximately 158 g of wax for this design. Actual usage may vary slightly depending on the wax formulation and making process.
Can I use soy wax?
Yes, provided you choose a soy wax formulated for molded or freestanding candles. Very soft container soy wax may not provide enough rigidity for the narrow openwork flame sections.
How should I demold the open flame sections?
Wait until the candle has hardened completely. Peel the silicone gradually away from the outside of the candle and then carefully free the narrow internal flame sections. Avoid pulling directly on the thinner wax bridges.
Is this specifically a Hanukkah or Shabbat candle?
The mold itself creates the HaEsh Sheli-style flame design and does not depict a menorah or separate Shabbat inscription in the supplied images. It can be used for Judaica-inspired candle projects without limiting the design to one particular holiday.
What wick size should I use?
Wick selection depends on the wax formulation, fragrance load and burn behavior of the finished candle. Because this design has an unusual openwork profile, proper wick testing and full burn testing are especially important before using or selling finished candles.
