Frequently asked questions

Answers to what we hear most from our candle-loving customers.

Orders

When will my order ship?

Candle care

How do I get the best burn from my candle?

Trim the wick to about 6mm before every burn, and let the first burn go until the wax melts fully to the edges of the jar. This prevents tunnelling and helps your candle burn evenly for its full life.

How long should I burn a candle at a time?

We recommend burning for no more than 3–4 hours at a stretch, and always on a heat-safe, level surface away from drafts and anything flammable.
