Straight from the Mountain Kingdom of eSwatini these fair-trade candles will add a little something special to any room with their beautiful patterned swirls.
They glow beautifully when lit and also make the perfect presents (even to yourself).
Did you know that our wonderful fair-trade candles for 45 hours, and that you can re-use them?
They’re made from two types of wax, with the external patterned wax frame being extremely hard and durable. This frame holds its shape, so you can enjoy your stunning candle time and time again by putting a tea light or small candle inside!
When re-using, we recommend burning the candle down to one-third of its height in order to keep its shape.
Each candle in our collection has been expertly crafted by professional candle-makers in the mountain kingdom of Eswatini, so you can be sure of their exceptional quality. As they’re handmade, no two candles will be exactly the same.
The artisans shape these candles using the ancient ‘millefiori’ technique, which was perfected in Italy to create the finest glass sculptures. This technique was then translated into use with wax.
As all candles are handmade, please expect some differences in sizing and patterns.
