Inspired by stories

Our literary candles are inspired by classic stories, each scent has been carefully chosen to be reminiscent of a person, place or theme from a book.

Comma candles are made using eco coconut/rapeseed wax, a sustainable wooden wick and poured by hand in small batches. We hope their beautiful and evocative scents will enrich everyday moments in your life.
