How to Care for Your Candle

Important please read to get the best experience and life from your luxury candle.

For the best burn experience, keep the following in mind:

The first time you light your candle, allow it to burn until the wax pool melts all the way to the edge; for a larger candle, this may take several hours. Wax has "memory," so if it is extinguished with a partial pool, that will prevent a full, even pool from forming in the future. Don’t let your candle burn for more than 4 hour increments, note that larger candles make take longer to complete the first melt pool.

Trim your wick each time you light the candle, removing any "bloom" from the previous burn. We recommend lighting a wick that is no more than 1/8" in height.

Ensure that your candle is placed on a heat-safe surface. Please use a coaster for your candle if you burn it on a wood surface. Note: Metal vessels get very hot when burning, always protect your surfaces. 

Do not use a lid to extinguish your candle. It will trap smoke and the wax will pick up that scent as well. In addition, most of our lids are wood, if you use the wood lid to extinguish the flame it will burn the wood. 

Do not allow wick trimmings, dust, or other materials to accumulate in the wax pool. If you notice soot on the top of your candle from burning too long, before burning again, wipe it down with a damp towel to remove.

To ensure safety and longevity, be sure to check the bottom of your candle for additional instructions, including details on when to discontinue use.
