Face Candle Cup Mould | Sculpted Faces | 6x8x8cm | Pack of 1 - Resin Pot

Cast a sculpted face vessel with calm profiles wrapping the outside and a deep well for wax. This white silicone mould measures 6x8x8cm and peels back off the facial detail so the cup comes out whole.

Specifications

Perfect for

• Sculptural candle vessels
• Small succulent planters
• Statement pen and brush pots
• Gift candles

Compatibility

Works with: epoxy resin, plaster of Paris, cement, jesmonite, candle wax and melt and pour soap base.

Pairs well with: resin pigments, mica powder, dried flowers, tealights and pre-waxed wicks.

Not suitable for: food use, oven baking or direct flame; we state no food grade or heat rating for this mould, so keep it to resin, cement, plaster, wax and soap. Do not use the cast as a burning vessel without a tealight in its own cup.

How to Use

1. Wash the mould in warm soapy water and dry it fully before the first pour.
2. Pour slowly down the inside wall, then tap the board for a minute so trapped air rises out.
3. Let the piece cure fully to the time your material states, since an early release tears the edge.
4. Peel the silicone back from one side and work round the rim; sand any seam with fine paper.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size cup does this mould cast?
The mould measures 6x8x8cm (2.4x3.1x3.1 inch), so the cast sits just inside those figures.

How is this different from the Honeycomb Pot?
This 6x8x8cm cup has sculpted faces. The Honeycomb Pot has a plain hexagon texture and no stated size.

Can I pour cement and jesmonite as well as resin?
Yes. The flexible silicone takes epoxy resin, plaster of Paris, cement, jesmonite, candle wax and melt and pour soap base.

Cast my own vessel or buy a ready candle jar?
A ready jar from our candle cups and jars range is fill and go. This mould lets you cast the vessel yourself in the colour and material you want. Pick the jar for speed and the mould for a range of your own.
