Candle - Étincelles

Étincelles is a candle for the festive season, made for celebrations, love and family. It brings to mind winter nights under a starry sky, and its wooden wick crackles softly like a fire in the hearth.

Juniper berry, cardamom and spruce bark on top; clove, Ceylon cinnamon and Virginia cedarwood at the heart; sandalwood, amber resin and vanilla bean at the base. Baltic Club hand-pours it in Montréal with vegan soy wax.

Format: 8 oz jar, about 50 hours of burn time.

Materials: 100% natural vegan soy wax (phthalate-free and paraffin-free), crackling wooden wick, amber glass jar with gold lid.

How to use: the first time, let the candle burn until the wax has melted across the whole surface, about 2 hours. This prevents tunnelling.

Care: trim the wick to about 6 mm (1/4 in.) before each use; a wick that is too long can cause a high flame or black smoke. Stop using the candle when about 1 cm of wax remains at the bottom of the jar. Once the candle is finished, wash the jar in warm soapy water to give it a second life as a pencil holder or small vase.

Origin: hand-poured in Montréal.

Precautions: never leave a burning candle unattended or burn it for more than 4 hours at a time. Place it on a flat, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, flammable objects, children and pets.
