ROSEMARY CANDLE ~ For Remembrance & Love

Rosemary has long been associated with improving memory & sprigs were worn by students taking exams in ancient Greece. Nowadays, it is rosemary oil that is popular. In Britain the plant has traditionally been used for remembrance, it was thrown by mourners as the coffin was lowered at a funeral. Shakespeare’s interest in floriography is shown in Hamlet, when Ophelia says, “There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance; pray, love, remember.” It is believed that where rosemary flourishes, the woman rules & that a man who is indifferent to the fragrance of rosemary, is unable to truly love a woman. In the middle ages it was commonly used in wedding ceremonies as a love charm. Our soy candles are hand poured in small batches in Beddgelert, North Wales, and finished with a crackling wood wick. Like our jewellery, our candles are inspired by the language of flowers. The collection centres on single flowers and the meanings they have carried through generations, alongside a small number of seasonal fragrances inspired by folklore, the changing seasons and the places we’ve called home. Poured into amber glass jars and carefully presented in our signature packaging, they are made to be enjoyed at home or given as a thoughtful gift. Natural soy wax. Crackling wood wick. 250ml Amber glass jar with aluminium lid. Ready to gift in our signature packaging. Candle Care Trim the wood wick to around 3–5 mm before each burn. Allow the wax to melt to the edge of the jar on the first burn to help prevent tunnelling. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from children, pets and draughts.
