Libbey 238 Rocks glass .... what wick size??

[obsessed]

I have just bought some beautiful Libbey 238 Rocks glasses and am struggling to decide where to start with wicks. I am using GW464 and CDN or HTP wicks .... the glass widens at the bottom , so I am not sure where to start at choosing a wick. Should I go for one that may fit the middle of the glass , or wick to accomodate the wider bottom? Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Do you have the dimensions and a pic of the glass?

Hi TT ... I can't look it up as the company has closed and I got them last minute! They are about 9.5cm diameter at the widest I think ... 30cm circumference. I was thinking maybe a Cdn 22 -24?

just smashed one .... arrgghh ... now I have 23!

if so, that will build a lot of heat due to the shape and material. I would wick that one for the top, personally. I would start with a cd10 or cdn12 (CDN burn slightly cooler than cd in my experiments with soy). Then I'd adjust from there after I got through the first burn of the entire candle.

Yes , that the one! You are a gem ... thankyou so much for that. I haven't made one this shape before. I will get cracking!
