Pure and Simple Beeswax and Tallow Candle
Beeswax and tallow have been trusted by our ancestors for generations to create candles that provide natural light and warmth. Unfortunately, many modern candles are made from petroleum-based paraffin and contain artificial fragrances and essential oils.
Beeswax candles offer several advantages when it comes to air quality and burning properties. Here are a few benefits:
-
Natural Air Purification: Beeswax candles release negative ions when burned, which can help to neutralize airborne pollutants like dust, mold spores, and odors, leading to improved indoor air quality.
-
Clean Burn: Beeswax candles burn more cleanly compared to other types of candles (such as paraffin). They produce minimal soot and don't emit harmful toxins or chemicals into the air.
-
Unscented: Since beeswax candles are naturally unscented, they do not add additional fragrances or chemicals into the air, making them a great choice for people who are sensitive to scents.
-
Long-lasting Burn: Beeswax has a higher melting point compared to other waxes, so it burns more slowly and evenly, providing a long-lasting flame.
-
Softened by Tallow: Tallow is added to beeswax to soften it, which can extend the burn time of the candle while maintaining a consistent and slow-burning flame.
Using beeswax candles can be a healthy and eco-friendly choice for those who want to enjoy the ambiance of candles without compromising indoor air quality.
Our candles are crafted with local beeswax and grass-fed and grass-finished tallow. We use lead-free, square-braided cotton wicks that we hand-dip in beeswax and tallow. These candles are unscented, they have a slight honey smell from the beeswax.
Choose from a grey or cream vessel with matching lid.
Burn Time: 30 hours

Candle Care:
- Place your candle away from flammable items and drafts.
- Set it on a heat-resistant surface and keep it within sight.
- Before each use, trim the wick to 1/4 inch.
- For the first burn, allow the candle to melt the wax pool all the way to the edge of the container. This can take up to four hours.
- Do not burn for more than four hours at a time, as the container may overheat.
- Use a candle wick snuffer to extinguish the flame, rather than blowing it out.

This is the first beeswax candle I purchased, and I never realized how sweet the scent of beeswax could be, reminiscent of honey. It feels so much cleaner burning. I have been wanting to find more natural non-toxic candles and I am excited to try some of the other scents.
