We found these cups in a small shop in Mashiko, Japan; the store was filled to the brim with ceramics made locally in the area. We spotted these cups, and the moment we saw them, we knew we wanted to make them into a limited edition candle. They are a great size for not only a candle; they feel lovely to hold, making them a perfect cup you can enjoy once your candle has finished burning.

Story

While Tara was in Mashiko, she stopped by a little shop she remembered visiting years ago. Much to her delight, the same lovely old lady was still there, surrounded by shelves of locally made ceramics. Together, they carefully selected a collection of pieces, all handcrafted by makers from the area. Then, in the thick summer heat, they stood side by side counting, wrapping and packing every single one. It was hot, slow work, but one of those very special moments that makes sourcing in Japan so memorable - returning to the same places, seeing familiar faces and bringing a little piece of Mashiko home with us.

Ingredients & Craft

Our studio is located in Surry Hills, Sydney, where we pour each and every one of our candles by hand. We pure soy wax and boutique natural fragrances to craft our candles.

Each one is designed with sustainability in mind, the idea is once you finish burning your candle you can reuse the ceramic vessel. Simply remove the wick, wash with hot soapy water and use it as a tea or coffee cup, or bring it back to the store for a candle refill. We think candles should be burnt and enjoyed every day and not just saved for special occasions, so burn it, refill it or reuse it. 

Made without any nasties - No Parabens, Parrafin or Palm Oil
