The collection
Six ways to slow down.
From amber jars to dinner tapers. Choose a scent, size or wax colour inside each piece.
Candle care
A ritual worth keeping.
A few small habits help every candle burn evenly, right to the end.
First burn
Let the wax melt to the edges the first time — around two hours — to avoid tunnelling.
Trim the wick
Trim to 5mm before each light for a calm, smoke-free flame.
Reuse the vessel
Once it’s done, warm water lifts the last wax, ready for pens, brushes or a cutting.
About Gloamwick
Poured slowly, burned slowly.
“Gloaming” is the old word for twilight — the in-between hour when the lamps go on. Gloamwick began as a kitchen-table pour for exactly that hour.
Every candle is poured, cured for two weeks and labelled by hand in small batches.
- Rapeseed & coconut wax blend, no paraffin
- Phthalate-free fragrance oils
- Glass you’ll want to keep
