Hand-cast Vessel, Hand-poured in small batches, Made in Tennessee Fragrance Notes Our Gardenia Candle has a wonderful, well-rounded fragrance & immediately transports you to a spring garden in full bloom. Top notes of Gardenia & lemon rind give way to full notes of jasmine, tuberose, & green florals. Fresh & floral, this fragrance is perfect mix of gardenia & an English garden. Handcast Vessel Each of our concrete vessels are hand-cast to create a textured, minimal design. Every detail of this vessel has been considered & thoughtfully chosen to create something that transcends the sum of its parts. Each candle is then hand-poured using phthalate free fragrance, coconut apricot wax, & a cotton core wick to create a beautiful, clean-burning candle. Coconut Wax We bypassed some popular waxes in choosing coconut wax. Our Wax is renewable sourced as well as paraben & toxin-free. It binds beautifully with fragrance oil. When paired with a cotton core wick, it burns at a lower temperature than other candle waxes on the market, allowing for a cleaner, longer-burning candle. The process of wicking a candle in a concrete vessel is a science centered around controlling the heat. The wax & wick have been matched to do just that. The Burn Our concrete candles burn in a unique way. After the first 2-3 hour burn, you will have melt pool that has not reached the edge of the vessel. This is intentional. The candle itself is wicked to ensure that the outer concrete vessel does not overheat. It is only at the end of the burn, when the candle reaches its hottest temperature, that you will notice the wax left on the sides of the vessel will begin to melt. Once your candle has had its final burn, remove the wick & give new life to your vessel by enjoying it as a planter or other container. Candle Care Allow your candle to burn at least two hours its first use. Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before every burn. Do not burn candle for more than four hours at a time. Extinguish when a quarter of an inch of wax remains. Gardenia Candle, Concrete Candle, Floral Luxury Handmade All Natural Phthalate Free, Coconut Wax Candle
