It is all about quality: 100% European rapeseed wax, a heavy milky-white glass jar, our own scent Royal Flora Devota and a careful, artisanal production process. The keepsake box and premium ribbon complete it.

100% European rapeseed wax. This organic wax burns cleaner and slower than soy wax, for example, and carries the scent more beautifully. Rapeseed is also an important source of food for bees and other pollinators.

The candle weighs 200 grams and burns for about 50 hours, when burned as described under safe burning.

The thick, milky-white glass jar is 8 cm tall and 9 cm wide. Small enough for your bedside table, substantial enough to shine on the dining table.

Soft and floral. Iris, jasmine, lotus and magnolia blend with a hint of Tilia henryana into a refined bouquet, inspired by the palace garden around the corner from our Chandlery in The Hague.

Deliberately not. We choose a subtle scent because it gives the cleanest burn. It fills the room softly, without overpowering it.

No, we are not in favour of candles with (many) dyes. That is why the wax keeps its natural, soft tone.

In our own candle workshop, in a controlled process where classic craftsmanship meets modern technique. Each candle is then packed by hand in our Chandlery in The Hague. All components come from carefully selected European makers.

In three places: on the candle label, on the keepsake box and on the premium ribbon. Always in deep gold, in a classic serif typeface.

Let it burn the first time until the entire top layer has melted, usually 2 to 3 hours. This way it burns evenly afterwards and avoids tunnelling.

No more than 4 hours at a time. Then extinguish it and let it cool before lighting it again.

Yes, trim the wick to about 5 mm before each use. This gives a calm flame, without soot.

On a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from draughts and out of reach of children and pets. Not near curtains, books or other flammable items, and keep at least 10 cm between candles.

When about 1 cm of wax remains in the jar, so the glass does not get too hot. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

With a candle snuffer, or by briefly dipping the wick into the melted wax and straightening it again. This prevents smoke and keeps the scent pure.

Let a used match go out completely and then discard it; never put it back in the box. Also make sure no pieces of match fall into the wax.
