Beautiful pear hex candle made from 100% NZ beeswax from Northland and natural cotton wicks.
 
These have a beautiful, strong natural aroma that fills the room with cosiness and intimacy
 
Healthy,  and free from nasty synthetic fragrances (see a quote regarding the dangers of synthetic scented candles below).
 
Beeswax candles produce a pure and bright light and have a long burn time due to the higher temperatures required to burn natural wax. Plus these little guys smell heavenly!
 
I had a majestic and slightly concerning few moments in The Meadow and Thorn kitchen making these, I had left the door open as it was a hot day, and suddenly found dozens of bees inside all at the same moment. I had magical and intense few minutes ushering them all back outside again!
 
Size:  7.5 cm tall,  128 grams total approx. NZ beeswax. 
 
A note on inorganic candles:
Scented candles pose health risks by releasing volatile organic compounds (VOCs), soot, and toxins like formaldehyde, benzene, and toluene, particularly from paraffin wax. These pollutants can cause headaches, dizziness, respiratory issues (asthma/COPD), and eye irritation. For safer use, choose soy or beeswax with cotton wicks.
