I love candles!
How about you?
My first candle, I made a long time ago, during a memorable summer in Norway, where I stayed with a welcoming family, as part of a student program. I still keep that first candle in my home to remind me of the beginning of my candle-making journey.
Originally from Bulgaria - a small country in Europe, known for its beautiful nature and strong traditions, I am fortunate to have access to some of the finest beeswax in the world. Bulgaria`s abundance of flowers and natural beauty, provides everything bees need to create exceptional honey and beeswax. I source my beeswax from local bee farms, supporting fellow small businesses along the way.
To me, the bees are among the most vital creatures on Earth, and creating beeswax candles is my way of appreciating them!
Origins of Beeswax Candles
Beeswax candles have been used for centuries and their origins can be traced back to ancient civilizations like ancient Egypt, Rome and Greece.
In Europe, the use of beeswax candles declined during the Middle Ages, as there were fewer beekeepers, making beeswax more costly and less accessible.
However, the beeswax candles became popular again during the Renaissance period in Europe, when the beeswax candles became a symbol of luxury and were used in churches and wealthy households.
By the 17th and 18th centuries, particularly in France, beeswax candles had become highly sought after, with artisans crafting elaborate and ornate designs for royal and aristocratic household.
Today, beeswax candles are even more valued for their natural, eco-friendly, and sustainable qualities.
