Description

A cyan candle is a small decorative light that provides a gentle flame and a splash of cyan color to interiors and altars. Candles can be lit and extinguished by right clicking and they provide ambient light that helps set a mood without overpowering a room. The cyan candle gives a soft cool tone and is perfect for baths reading nooks and shrine like displays where subtle color and modest brightness are desired. Multiple candles placed together increase the light level and make a stronger focal point so players often cluster them on tables mantles and altars to highlight special items or to mark important areas. Since candles are simple to craft and use they are friendly for survival builds and for creative decoration projects. They also behave well in small spaces where lanterns or glowstone would be too bright or too large. Players use colored candles to theme rooms and to coordinate with banners beds and carpets in the same color family for a cohesive interior style.

What is Cyan Candle?

A cyan candle is a small placeable decorative light that can be lit to provide a low level of illumination and to add color accent to a scene. It functions like other candles with the ability to be stacked in count and to be extinguished and relit.

Where to find Cyan Candle

Cyan candles are crafted by players and do not spawn naturally. You will find them in player builds and in markets where decorators sell themed items. The materials for candles can be gathered from common sources and then combined to color wax and make a candle.

How to get Cyan Candle

To get a cyan candle craft one using string and wax or use crafting recipes that combine wool and dye depending on the game version. Use cyan dye to color the wax or to recolor white candles.
