About

The Purple Candle is a standalone decorative block that emits light when placed. Each candle takes up one inventory slot and cannot be stacked with others, so multiple candles require multiple inventory spaces.

Use the give command to hand candles to players or yourself for decoration and building. Place them on solid surfaces or combine multiple candles in a single block space to create grouped lighting effects.
