Description
This scented candle brings a honey and oats fragrance and a touch of farmyard charm to any room, set in a smoky grey vessel with a natural-coloured lid. The chickens design shows a russet hen painted in a loose watercolour style, her feathers picked out in warm browns, creams and soft greys, standing on a splash of colour close to the base. At 250g, the candle stands 11.8cm tall, 7.8cm wide and 8.2cm deep, a neat round size that suits a shelf, sill or side table without crowding it.
Honey and oats is a cosy, homely pairing, and we think it is at its best in a kitchen, on a dining table or beside a favourite armchair as the evening draws in. The painted hen suits a farmhouse or country cottage scheme, and the grey and natural colouring sits quietly alongside creams, sage greens and soft neutrals. A burn time of 50 hours means plenty of slow evenings from one candle, so it is as much a practical buy as a pretty one. It also makes a cheerful little gift.
The wax is a blend of 70% soy wax and 30% paraffin wax, poured around a single wick, and the lid sits neatly on top to keep dust off between burns. For a clean, even burn, trim the wick before lighting, stand the candle on a stable, level surface away from draughts, and never leave a burning candle unattended. Dust the vessel with a soft dry cloth when needed. We like it on a kitchen windowsill with the lid propped beside it, or tucked into a basket of kitchen treats alongside a tea towel and a jar of honey as a gift.
