Candlelight
There’s nothing that creates a more welcoming home than the warming scent and flickering flame of a candle. Choose from our ceramic candle holders and bundles of candles to add atmosphere and cosiness to your home this winter. They make a wonderful Christmas gift for the homebodies in your life, too!
In this winter set, our handmade porcelain Hilda candle holder comes with a bundle of four St Eval Inspiritus candles and a box of pretty French matches in its own box. A wonderful gift for the candle lover (let’s face it, who doesn’t love a candle?), the Inspiritus taper candle is delicately scented with an uplifting blend of aromatic spices, nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves - the perfect scents to mingle with fresh fir and the waft of an open fire.
For me, a table is not complete without candles. Our latest addition, the understatedly elegant Hilda candle holder is made from smooth porcelain and is glazed in our signature matt finish. We think it complements our tableware perfectly. Use one alone or arrange a grouping of two or three to softly illuminate intimate gatherings at any time of day or night.
Made to fit slim taper candles that you can buy here.

We’re very proud of our new candle. Housed in our porcelain Braunton tumbler, which is designed to be refilled or reused, once it’s finished burning, the container can be filled with your pencils , make up brushes, or used as a neat little vase.
Our vibrant turquoise version is filled with hand poured natural soy wax scented with seven essential oils, including rose otto, geranium and vetiver, which brings about a rich, sensuous sent with a gentle, slightly smoky aroma. If you like The White Company’s Pomegranate candle or Ren’s Rose Otto skincare range, you’ll probably like this.

In this popular set, our ceramic Hilda candle holder comes with a bundle of two IB Laursen taper candles, a box of pretty matches and a mini dried flower posy, all in its own box.
A wonderful gift for the candle lover (let’s face it, who doesn’t love a candle?), the Hilda candle holder is handmade in smooth porcelain and glazed in our signature chalky, matt white finish.
Its diminutive proportions mean it’ll fit perfectly on your mantelpiece or bedside table, but is equally at home - alone or with some of its sisters - on your dining table. The elegant pastel blue candles included in this set are the perfect table accessory to brighten up your spring gatherings. Just add some cheery daffs or billowy peonies and you’re good to go!
Your candle set will come gift-ready, wrapped in tissue paper with a handwritten note, despatched in plastic-free packaging.
The Hilda candle holder is approx 10 cm, and comes with two 1.5 cm diameter slim taper candles.
The colours of the matchboxes and the flowers in the posy may vary depending on what we have in stock, but I will always choose colours that work in perfect harmony with one another.
