This process being complete next comes the fats and their melting. Various fats were used such as sheep's fat pig's fat etc.
Which ever fat was used was put in a vessel then known as a grisset and placed over the fire.
When this was done all was now ready for the making of the candles.
The mould was now got and held in a perpendicular position with its pointed end downwards and into it the melted fat was poured and allowed to cool. The clip was removed and out came the candle.
Various other things were used for hardening and colouring like our Christmas candles of today.
