Candle shade, collects the wax from the candles during the procession

Wax candles easily stain the robes of the brothers and the clothes of other participants in processions. As the processions progress, the melted wax of the candles becomes more and more abundant. It is very simple, that at any moment, the wax from the candles jumps onto the tunic of a Nazarene, or the shawl of a lady, etc... In addition, the wax is somewhat difficult to clean, especially from the most delicate fabrics such as velvet.

In addition to clothing, wax candles are also spilled on public roads and in the temples through which the Holy Week processions pass. During the route of a Paso de Semana Santa, the wax that is spilled on the streets and the temples is very difficult to clean. The wax from the candles spilled in the temples generates a lot of extra work among the collaborators of parishes and churches. Candle wax spilled on public roads can generate conflicts with other neighbors or with the Administration.

Plastic lampshades avoid these two negative consequences derived from the use of wax candles in processions . The plastic tulips adapt to the diameter of the candles and serve as a deposit for the melted wax.
