I love burning candles on darker evenings and try to avoid using too much artificial light. I’ve been looking for the perfect 100% pure beeswax candles for a long time, and I found them made by a lovely husband and wife team in Devon. These beautiful candles have been hand dipped using traditional methods and they burn with a steady golden glow, giving a lovely warm light that you only get from beeswax. Because they are hand dipped they have a long slow burn. Every batch varies slightly, depending on the flowers that the bees have foraged on and the time of year the wax was produced.
Beeswax is often referred to as the ‘Queen of Waxes’ for its burning qualities and these candles are completely natural and chemical free – no petro chemicals, soya or palm oil, toxic compounds or artificial fragrances. Beeswax candles emit negative ions to purify and improve air quality and are beneficial to people with environmental allergies, sensitivities and asthma. The negative ion effect can improve your mood, energy and health. The bees used to make the wax for these candles (and raw honey too) forage across the marshes of Powderham Marshes Nature Reserve, taking pollen and nectar from over 50 different wildflowers which gives the candles a lovely honeyed scent. These candles are available as pairs for £8 or in a gift boxed set of 6 as shown for £22.
Dimensions: 2cm x 19cm high (sizes may vary slightly as each pair is handmade)
Burn time: approximately 8-9 hours each.
Candles should always be placed on the correct surface, all candles should never be left unattended.
Pairs will be sent tissue wrapped, set of 6 candles will be sent in the bee print gift box shown.

These are lovely candles, the scent of beeswax is so calming and they are beautifully and mindfully packed (not a plastic in sight). A thank you note as well, handwritten. A rare service these days…highly recommended.

I loved receiving these.I bought two boxes of 6 as with the nights drawing in I know we will use more candles. The beeswax feels and smells very pure and earthy, perfect for Autumn. The packaging makes these very gift-worthy too, and the hand written card just made me so happy to be buying from someone who values their customers so highly. Many thanks.

These dinner candles are perfect. They last a long time and are good value. They come in a beautiful box so you can store them easily and we appreciate the individual feel that Naomi had created. Thank you!

Everything about these candles is beautiful, from the natural beeswax scent and gorgeous packaging, to the fact that they were hand delivered to my door in Bristol. I can’t wait to use them at our Christmas dinner table. Thank you so much.
