Details you can smell.

Small choices make a clean burn. Every wick is sized to its vessel.

The wick

Braided cotton, chosen for each size so the flame stays low and steady.

The pool

The wax melts edge to edge, so the scent fills the room and nothing is left on the sides.

The vessel

Heavy glass or ceramic from a specialist maker. It holds the heat, and it takes a refill.

Poured by hand.

We blend every scent and pour every candle in our studio, then let it cure for two weeks. Glass and ceramic come from makers who do nothing else.

How we make it →

Burn well, then refill.

Four habits for a clean flame and an even pool — and when the wax runs low, a refill takes a minute.

First burn

Let the pool reach the edge, about two to three hours. It sets the pattern for every burn after.

Trim the wick

Cut it to 5 mm before each light, for a calm flame and no soot.

Keep it still

A flat surface, away from drafts and open windows. The flame stays straight.

Photo: a snuffer lowered over a candle flame, a thin line of smoke rising

Snuff it out

Use a snuffer, never water. Burn up to four hours at a time.

01Burn until about 5 mm of wax is left.

02Let it cool, then lift out the old wax.

03Drop in a refill of the same size.

04Trim the new wick and light. Done.

Questions.

All FAQs →

How long does a candle burn?

About 25 hours for 120 g, 45 hours for 220 g and 80 hours for 400 g, if you trim the wick and burn up to four hours at a time. See burning.

Why trim the wick?

A wick trimmed to 5 mm gives a calm flame and stops soot. A long wick burns too hot and too fast.

What is the wax made of?

A blend of coconut and rapeseed wax, with a braided cotton wick.

How do refills work?

Burn down to about 5 mm, lift out the old wax and drop in a refill of the same size. Every size has one — see refills.

Can you make a scent or label for our hotel or shop?

Yes. Send us a short brief and we will start with a few sample blends. See process.

How long does delivery take?

Stock scents ship from our studio with tracking. Trade and custom orders cure for two weeks; your quote states the lead time and shipping cost to your door.
