Why We Love It
Transform your space with our artisanal Oaxacan Double Spiral Beeswax Taper Candle, meticulously handcrafted by fourth-generation artisans in Teotitlan del Valle, Oaxaca. Each spiral is a testament to ancient indigenous candle making traditions, featuring a double helix design that glows as it burns.

These beeswax taper candles are dyed using ancestral techniques using a prized natural dye, cochineal, in a practice dating back to pre-colonial times. Free from paraffin, synthetic dyes and harmful additives, they offer a pure, clean burn that honors tradition and the planeta.

Made with 100% pure, locally-sourced beeswax, providing up to 12 hours of gentle, honey-scented illumination.
