The heart of our studio is a pot of beeswax.
The scent of honey fills the air.
Wax touches everything.
Beeswax begins colorless and scentless which is infused with plant essence over time.
We work with local beekeepers to source fresh NYS beeswax.
Our candles are hypoallergenic and naturally feature a vibrant golden color and honey-floral scent.
How is beeswax made? At fifteen days old, the female Honey bees engorge on honey then a flake of wax emerges from their belly. They sculpt this wax to create the hexagonal honeycomb—which houses food and babies. A NYS beekeeper collects beeswax up to three times per year, as a byproduct of the honey harvest.
