Are your candles safe for pets?

Yes, absolutely. Our candles were created for this very reason. They are pet-conscious and suitable for sensitive individuals. Always burn candles out of reach of curious noses and paws.

We use a proprietary Natural Coconut Apricot Luxury Wax blend. It is completely soy-free and formulated to burn cleanly with minimal to no black soot, maximizing fragrance throw and burn time.

How long do your candles burn?

Each full-size candle has a total burn time of approximately 70-80 hours. For best results, we recommend not burning your candle for more than 4 hours at a time.
