Royal Mail 1st Class Signed for at a cost of £5.50. This protects both parties should the item go missing.

Why Wooden Wicks?
- Because they look so beautiful.
- They emit a very gentle crackle sound, similar to that of a log fire (although on a much smaller/quieter scale) which in turn can create a pleasant, calming ambiance similar to that of being outdoors/with nature.
Please see our ‘Care & Instructions Page’ on how to burn your candle.
What is the difference between Soy and other waxes?
Soy wax is known as a ‘clean burning wax’ meaning it will not release harmful byproducts into your room, or leave black soot marks on your wall. It is vegetable based and has a lower melting point than other waxes (for example Paraffin) and therefore will burn slower and for longer than paraffin candles.
If I need something in a hurry, can you do this?
We will do our very best! Although our production process is by hand so cannot be rushed, especially if it is a completely bespoke product. Perhaps instead, choose from one of our In Stock candles- which are sent out within 2 days.
Where are your candles made?
All our candles are made in our dedicated workshop in Hubberton, Halifax.
