Olive Branch Crest Scented Soy Candle Wedding Gift

Amber glass does something for sage: the crest sits against the warm tint and reads softer than it would on clear glass or white ceramic, branches crossing under the script ampersand with EST. 2026 at the base. Lit, the jar throws a low glow through the design. It is the gift you bring to the couple's place for dinner two months after the wedding, when the presents have stopped arriving.

Soy wax burns cooler and longer than paraffin, and roughly forty hours is enough for a whole winter of evenings if it is not left going all day. The cotton wick wants trimming to a quarter inch before each light, which is the one habit that keeps a candle from tunneling. When the wax is finished the jar washes out and keeps working as a brush pot or a spot for matches.

• Scented soy wax in an amber glass jar with a cotton wick
• Around 40 hours of burn time
• Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before each burn and never leave it unattended
• Reusable jar once the wax is spent
• Poured and packed in the USA; handled as fragile in transit
