Bergamot, jasmine and ylang-ylang over grounding rosewood. Woody and clean, the smell of trees near water, with just enough flower in it to lift.
Each tealight sits in the cut base of a beer bottle, collected from friends and local businesses around Warkworth and Matakana. We de-label them, cut the tops off, then grind and polish each rim until it is smooth enough to run your thumb along. A pack of three is three bottles prepared that way. A pack of six is six.
Glass colour varies. We work with salvaged bottles, so what comes in is what we pour into. Amber, green and clear all come through at different times, and you will get what we have when your order is packed.
100g of soy wax in each tealight, burning for around 25 hours. Three or six, packed into a thick brown box made for us locally: 21 x 9 x 9cm for the three, 21 x 14 x 9cm for the six.

Candle Care
Candle Care
Careless burning of a candle will often result in a poor burn performance, please carefully read and follow the care instructions below to get the most out of your Earth Candle.
Suggested accessories: wick trimmer & wick dipper
Lighting a Candle for the First Time
• Before lighting a candle for the first time, trim wick to approximately 10-15mm.
• When lighting a candle for the first time allow a melt pool to form across the entire top surface of the candle (this prevents tunneling, and creates an even burn for the duration of the candles life). This can take from 2-4 hours.
Trim Wicks
• After the initial lighting of a candle keep wick trimmed to 5-6mm (for best results trim before and during burn, use a wick trimmer) remove any wick debris created during the trimming process.
Extinguishing Candles
• Never blow a candle out as the wax can splash.
• The best way to extinguish a candle is with a wick dipper, simply dip the wick the into melted wax then straighten wick to prevent smoking and prevents any hot wax from splashing.
Storing Candles
• Always store candles in a cool, dark and dry place.
• Avoid placing candles in direct sunlight or harsh indoor lighting, such as spotlights.
• Remove dust and fingerprints from candle by gently rubbing the surface with a piece of nylon or a Soft cloth. The cloth can be dry or slightly dampened with water.
Follow the Earth Candle Guidelines
• Always read and carefully follow the earth candles guidelines on each candle. Never burn a candle longer than the label recommends.
