Long thin candles (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tapers

'long thin candles' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for tapers that I've seen before include "Becomes gradually narrower as candle may" , "Prates about slender candles" , "Prates about candle lighters" , "Makes or becomes gradually narrower" , "Narrows toward a point" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and the Irish Times (Simplex).
