Most water-themed jar candles use a single wick. Two- and three-wick options are also common, especially for larger jars or when a stronger fragrance throw is desired.
Burn time varies by size and formulation. Small sample candles may burn around 6 hours, while larger jar candles can burn up to roughly 50–51 hours.
Wick materials are typically cotton or other natural fibers. Listings often highlight 'premium' cotton or wicks made from 100% natural fibers.
Sizes range from small 2-ounce sample candles to mid-size jars commonly around 3.7–8 ounces, and larger vessels approximately 14–14.5 ounces.
