Elevate your space with our exclusive, one-of-a-kind candles, crafted in collaboration with the Stone+Sparrow from Pittsburgh, PA. Each candle is a masterpiece, blending Appalachian Wax Works' signature beeswax with Stone+Sparrow's stunning hand-thrown ceramic vessels. These limited-edition candles are more than just a source of light—they are a fusion of art, craftsmanship, and nature.
Every candle is unique, with no two vessels exactly alike. The ceramic containers are skillfully crafted and glazed by hand, creating a beautiful, tactile piece that will enhance any room. Once the candle has burned down, the vessel can be repurposed as a stylish home décor item, adding lasting value to your purchase.
The candles themselves are made from a blend of 100% pure beeswax and other natural cleaning burning oils like coconut. Gently scented with orange blossom natural fragrance with a 20+ hour burn time.

Care information
Care information
For Cotton Wick Candles:
1. Trim the Wick Before Each Use
- Why: A trimmed wick ensures a cleaner, steadier flame and prevents soot.
- How: Cut the wick to ¼ inch (6-7 mm) before lighting.
2. Burn Long Enough to Prevent Tunneling
- Why: Beeswax has a memory. If you extinguish the candle too soon, it may tunnel.
- How: Let the candle burn until the melt pool reaches the edge of the container (usually 1 hour per inch of diameter).
3. Avoid Drafts
- Why: Drafts can cause uneven burning and flickering.
- How: Keep candles away from windows, fans, and air vents.
4. Extinguish Carefully
- Why: Blowing out candles can cause wax splatter or smoking.
- How: Use a snuffer or dip the wick into the melted wax, then straighten it for easier relighting.
5. Remove Bloom If Desired
- Why: Beeswax naturally forms a white "bloom" over time — it’s not mold! It's a sign of a pure beeswax candle.
- How: Buff gently with a soft cloth if you prefer a polished look, or leave it for a rustic, natural finish.
6. Burn on a Heat-Resistant Surface
- Why: Beeswax burns hotter than other waxes.
- How: Always use a stable, heatproof holder or tray under your candle.
For Wooden Wick Candles:
Trim the wick before each use, removing all charred wood from previous burns. A long wooden wick may not stay lit long enough to fuel the flame, causing it to extinguish itself. Always do this when the candle is fully cooked.
Light your wooden wick from the base, closest to the wax, and ensure the full wick is alight. Lighting from the top could result in the wood burning itself out before reaching the wax.
On the first burn, allow the wax to melt across the entire diameter of the candle. This will help prevent tunneling and ensure extended life of the candle.
Never leave a burning candle unattended and keep away from children and pets.
