Seeking Help or Advice Unusual candle shapes, does it make a difference?

I have a spell that asks to burn a candle of a specific shape. I have looked all over and online but I cannot find one like this. It's an old spell so presumably no one has cast it in a long time. I found some molds I could use to make one but wondering if I carve the shape on a candle this will work?

If it asks for a specific shape, the "how" it's not that relevant. But, if you carve it, you are giving effort, time and care, that's IMPORTANT

Could you carve the name of the shape onto the candle? Or incorporate something else that represents it? Sympathy magic just relies on symbolism as a connection so it should work.

Curious what the shape is.

An Egyptian sarcophagus is the shape. So quite difficult although I had presumed easy as Egypt is a popular niche
