Candle snuffer and wick trimmer set Affek Design Bercato — stainless steel with gold coating — 18×6 cm & 19×2.7 cm

Set includes a candle snuffer and a wick trimmer from Affek Design, model Bercato, crafted from stainless steel with a gold coating. The snuffer measures 18×6 cm and the trimmer 19×2.7 cm. The set is intended for safe extinguishing of open flame candles and for precise trimming of wicks to reduce smoke, soot and residue, supporting cleaner burns and extended candle life.

Advantages

The tools are made of stainless steel with a gold-colored finish that resists corrosion and is easy to clean. The bell-shaped snuffer allows for extinguishing flames without blowing, which minimizes wax splatter and preserves scent integrity in scented candles. The wick trimmer provides a controlled cut close to the wax surface, removing charred wick and ensuring an even flame size to reduce smoke and carbon buildup.

Suitable for

• Household pillar, taper and container candles
• Decorative and scented candles used indoors
• Candle care routines to maintain even burning and reduce soot
• Gift sets or home accessory collections

Key specifications

• Materials: stainless steel with gold-colored coating
• Snuffer dimensions: 18 × 6 cm (length × bell diameter)
• Wick trimmer dimensions: 19 × 2.7 cm (length × cutting head width)
• Finish: smooth gold coating for decorative appearance
• Intended use: manual extinguishing and wick trimming for indoor candles

How to use

To extinguish a candle, place the bell of the snuffer over the flame until the flame is fully extinguished, then lift vertically to avoid wax disturbance. For trimming, position the wick trimmer so the cutting edge removes the charred portion of the wick, leaving approximately 3–5 mm of wick above the wax surface; discard trimmed wick debris safely. Use the trimmer when the candle is cool or the flame is extinguished and the wax has solidified enough to prevent pulling the wick.

Usage recommendations

Trim the wick before each burn and extinguish with the snuffer rather than blowing to reduce smoke and preserve fragrance. Clean the tools with a soft cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners to maintain the gold coating. Store the set away from humid environments to prolong the finish and performance.
