Gladstone's Library Candle

Regular price  £78.50

Getting this right took ages. It’s surprisingly hard to get a great scent and perfect packaging. But here it is; we’ve done it.
 
We were inspired by the storied libraries of country houses such as our homes at Hawarden and Glen Dye; this candle is earthy, warming and richly comforting. This is the scent of fine ancient books, the smouldering embers of a log fire, maybe a glass of good whisky.
 
Hand-poured in Britain by our friend Anastasia in the Cotswolds and supplied in a tailored box by W. MacCarthy & Sons of Woolwich, fifth-generation box makers established in 1880 and the only British box maker who makes stapled boxes in colour. The foiled, embossed stickers are made in North Wales.
 
We are really proud of this. In a highly competitive market, this stands out by smelling amazing, lasting ages, looking beautiful and being made entirely in Britain.

Product Care

Please take care on the first burn, allow the wax to melt evenly to the edges of the container (around 2–3 hours). This prevents tunnelling and helps the candle burn evenly throughout its life. Trim the wick to around 5mm before each use. Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time and keep the candle on a heat-resistant surface, away from draughts. Stop burning when 1cm of wax remains. Safety Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from children and pets. Do not burn near anything flammable.

Caroline and I have been making and selling things for over 40 years. First for other people (Laura Ashley and Warner Bros) and then, starting with Pedlars, for our own companies. 

And yet we have never had a single, focused place that pulls them all together.

Until now that is. It’s called Gladstone’s Luxury Dry Goods.
