Heat Advisory: Please be advised that we do not recommend shipping candles to high heat areas at this time. Some of our candles contain natural ingredients, such as soy and beeswax, that can melt starting at 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
Designed to fit our popular candlesticks, these ivory taper beeswax candles are hand-made from naturally fragrant pure Canadian beeswax. The beeswax taper candles have a less chance of dripping wax or scorch marks! Slow-burning and clean, beeswax was a valuable substance in the 18th century.

Product Care
You may notice a white film on the surface of your beeswax candles called "bloom". Bloom is not a defect but a process that occurs naturally on the surface of 100% beeswax candles. To remove the bloom, rub the surface gently with a soft cloth. Or, allow the bloom to continue for a snowflake like texture on the surface of your candles.
Inspiration
In colonial times, candles were a necessity for every household. The most commonly used tallow candles burned quickly, gave out a dim light, and had a grim odor. Not only did beeswax candles smell sweet, they also burned cleaner and longer than tallow candles, and gave out a brighter light. Unfortunately, they were a luxury only the very wealthy could afford, because beeswax was expensive.
