Colors Explained

 

 


Behind the Color

At Yummi Candles, we take great pride in crafting exquisite candles that create the perfect ambience with their hues. What sets our candles apart is our unique production process, starting with a white core. Our candles are crafted with a pure, unscented, white wax core. This serves as the foundation for the rich light that our candles emit. Subsequently a professionally trained chandler adds color through an hand over-dipping process. This technique ensures a uniform and vivid color layer on the outside. This offers a brilliant aesthetic and light effect, when the candle is lit the warm glow brings out the contrast between the white core and the vibrant outer layer. 

 

 










Colors are important in our daily lives for self-expression. Our goal is to offer a wide range of colored candles to help you create the perfect atmosphere for your events or home. While striving for accuracy in representing colors and shades, it's important to recognize that what we see on computer or mobile phone screens may not always reflect the true color shade. This discrepancy arises from the fact that different manufacturers utilize diverse technologies to produce screens, thereby influencing how colors are displayed. Certain color shades may look different on a screen compared to real life. Screens use an additive color model, while real objects reflect or absorb light to create color. This means the color you see on a screen may not match the actual color of a candle or color swatch.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Factors that affect color accuracy:

Screen Technology

LCD and OLED screens have different color gamuts, resulting in the display of varying colors.

Brightness & Contrast Settings

Adjustments to these settings on a screen can impact color accuracy.

Ambient Lighting Conditions

Viewing a screen in a brightly lit room may cause colors to appear washed out


or less vibrant compared to a darker room.

Screen Color Calibration 

Manufacturers calibrate screens differently, leading to variations in color accuracy. Users may also have the option to adjust color settings on their screens, further affecting accuracy.

Shades

Certain color shades may look different on a screen compared to real life. Screens use an additive color model, while real objects reflect or absorb light to create color. This means the color you see on a screen may not match the actual color of a candle or paint swatch.
