Description
This scented candle carries a painted stag's head on a smoky grey jar, its antlers spreading up the side in soft browns and creams against a scatter of tiny white flecks. The fragrance is elderflower and pear blossom, a fresh, light pairing of garden flower and fruit blossom. It is a 250g candle, and the jar stands about 11.8cm tall, 7.8cm wide and 8.2cm deep, a compact size that sits easily on a shelf or side table without crowding it. A round lid in a natural tone sits on top, so the grey jar and the warm natural lid give the piece its two colours.
We think it suits a living room mantelpiece, a bedside table or a bookshelf, anywhere a little scent and a wildlife picture are welcome. The stag gives it a countryside character that sits well with natural textures, wool throws and earthy colours, while the grey jar keeps it quiet enough for a modern room too. The stag sits on the front and the back is plain grey, so you can turn the picture to face the room. It also makes an easy gift for anyone who loves deer and the outdoors, or who simply enjoys a scented candle at the end of the day.
The wax is a blend of 70% soy wax and 30% paraffin wax around a single wick, and the candle gives around 50 hours of burn time, enough for plenty of quiet evenings. Burn it on a flat, stable surface away from draughts, and never leave a burning candle unattended. Trim the wick before relighting for a cleaner flame. Once it is out and cool, set the lid back on to keep dust off the wax, and wipe the jar with a soft dry cloth. Pair it with a few pine cones or a sprig of greenery on a tray for an easy seasonal display.
