Definition:
Tallow is a slow-burning material that once fueled lanterns and candles before modern waxes became common. It gives off a warm, steady flame with a faintly earthy scent. The substance carries an old-fashioned atmosphere, recalling nights lit by hand-poured tapers. Though simple, tallow played an essential role in keeping darkness at bay. Its glow feels deeply rooted in earlier times.
