Looks very pretty.
I think this may be the best candle I have ever purchased.
Natural beeswax smell, sophisticated design, lasts for even more than specified, plus I got to plant wildflowers with my order.

Why Beeswax Candles Are a Smart Choice
Here are 5 reasons why beeswax can be considered superior to other waxes, particularly paraffin wax:
-
Natural Air Purifier: Beeswax candles emit negative ions as they burn. These negative ions help neutralize allergens, dust, and other airborne pollutants in your home, creating a cleaner breathing environment.
-
Longer Burning Time: Beeswax has a higher melting point compared to other waxes. This translates to candles that burn slower and last longer, giving you more value for your money.
-
Clean and Brighter Burning: Beeswax candles produce a brighter, more natural light compared to paraffin wax alternatives. Additionally, beeswax burns cleaner, releasing minimal smoke and soot.
-
Honeycomb Scent: Beeswax has a pleasant, honey-like aroma that fills the room as the candle burns. This natural fragrance eliminates the need for artificial scents, which can sometimes be irritating.
-
Supports Beekeepers: Choosing beeswax candles directly supports beekeepers and beekeeping practices. Bees play a vital role in our ecosystem, and keeping bee populations healthy is crucial.
-
It's important to note that beeswax candles can be more expensive than paraffin wax options. However, the benefits for your health and the environment can be a worthwhile trade-off.
Beeswax quality tests
We work with a variety of large and small beeswax producers across the UK and Europe. We have selected beeswax suppliers we trust - all of which practice responsible beekeeping.
Each batch of beeswax we receive goes through the following set of tests to ensure the beeswax is not blended with other waxes:
- Melting point test - if the wax we have received melts at lower than 61 degrees Celcisus we do not use it in our candles. This is typically a sign that the beeswax has been mixed with toxic paraffin
- Texture - true natural beeswax should be hard when cold and soft when warm. At 20 degrees, it should break uneven when hit with a hammer. Also, true natural beeswax should present signs of marbling after left in storage for a long time.
- Smell - we love the smell of beeswax and couldn’t be fooled by synthetic beeswax
- Shape - we do not use beeswax pellets. We only use large blocks of beeswax like the ones below.
We prefer buying beeswax that has not been mixed with beeswax from other beekeepers. This way, the unique characteristics of each batch of beeswax can shine through.
