Inside Our Beeswax Candles

Our beeswax candles are handmade in Melbourne, Victoria using 100% Australian beeswax and braided cotton wicks.

From classic taper candles to sculptural shapes and playful colours, each candle is thoughtfully made to bring a little warmth and character to everyday spaces.

Unscented by design, our beeswax candles celebrate the natural beauty of beeswax, simple forms and considered details.

Australian Beeswax

We use 100% Australian beeswax, sourced from an apiary in regional Victoria.

Beeswax is a naturally firm wax, making it particularly suited to the moulded shapes and decorative designs in our collection.

Its natural colour can vary slightly between batches, reflecting the changing seasons and the flowers visited by the bees.

Why We Use Beeswax

We choose beeswax for its natural character and ability to hold beautifully detailed shapes.

From our classic candlesticks to our sculptural pillar candles, beeswax allows us to create considered designs that can be enjoyed both as decorative objects and by candlelight.

Each candle is handmade in small batches, with an appreciation for the natural variations that make beeswax unique.

Natural Colours & Candle Dyes

Our beeswax candles are available in a considered selection of colours, inspired by nature and the everyday.

Our Honey shade is left undyed, showcasing the natural golden colour of Australian beeswax.

Our coloured candles are made using beeswax and dyes formulated for candle making, bringing a playful touch to classic and sculptural designs.

As beeswax is a natural material, slight variations in colour may occur between batches.

What Is Beeswax Bloom?

Over time, you may notice a fine white film developing on the surface of your beeswax candle. This is known as beeswax bloom.

Bloom is a natural characteristic of beeswax and does not affect the candle's quality or performance.

If you prefer a smoother appearance, gently wipe the surface with a soft cloth. Bloom may return over time, as it's part of the wax's natural behaviour.

Caring for Your Beeswax Candles

A little care helps you get the most from your beeswax candles.

  • Trim the cotton wick before each light to maintain a steady flame.

  • Always place candles in a suitable holder or on a stable, heat-resistant plate to protect surfaces from dripping wax.

  • Keep candles away from drafts, direct sunlight, children and pets.

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended.

  • Allow candles to cool completely before moving or handling them.

When not in use, store your candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to help preserve their colour and shape.
