Our beeswax candles are a wonderful addition to any home, crafted with a focus on natural beauty and ambiance. They boast a gentle honey fragrance and are free from artificial scents and colors.

These candles cast a warm amber glow, creating a cozy atmosphere. Handmade in NZ, each candle is sold individually.

In terms of burn times and drip potential, we’ve thoughtfully designed our candles. The round shape of the rose, butterfly, and flower pillar candles allows the flame to consume all the wax, minimising dripping and maximising burn time. Animal-shaped candles might vary in burn and are prone to dripping, making estimating burn time challenging. It's important to place all candles on a base that can catch any potential wax drips.

For the best burn experience, ensure the candle is on a level surface in an appropriate holder. Extinguish the candle by dipping the wick into the wax pool and standing it up before it cools. This prevents smoking and facilitates easy relighting.

Over time, pure beeswax might develop a white dusting called "Bloom." While it doesn't impact burning, if you prefer the bright yellow appearance, you can gently polish it off with a soft cloth. However, it will reappear naturally.

Safety is paramount. Always burn candles within sight, away from drafts, children, and pets. Place them on a fireproof, level surface and keep them away from flammable objects.

To get the very best out of your beeswax pillar candle, it needs to burn until the melt pool reaches close to the edge of the candle.   Burning for shorter periods of time can result in a narrow tunnel burning down the middle of the candle and the wax on the outside of the candle not being consumed.
