Where It Begins

Born from the quiet moments of Irish evenings, Candlessyhandmad began as a simple idea: to bring the essence of calm into everyday spaces. Each candle is hand-poured in our Dublin workshop, where traditional techniques meet contemporary scents.

We believe in the power of ritual—the simple act of lighting a candle can transform a moment. Our collection draws inspiration from the Irish landscape, from coastal breezes to woodland walks, capturing scents that resonate with quiet luxury.

What Makes Us Different

Three pillars of our craft

Natural Ingredients

We source premium soy wax and carefully selected essential oils, ensuring each candle burns cleanly and fills your space with authentic aromas. Every ingredient is chosen for its quality and sustainability.

Hand-Poured

Every candle is poured by hand in small batches, allowing us to maintain meticulous attention to detail. This traditional approach ensures consistency and quality in every piece we create.

Thoughtful Design

Our vessels are designed to be beautiful in their simplicity, complementing any space long after the candle has burned. Each container is reusable, reflecting our commitment to thoughtful consumption.

Caring for Your Candle

Essential tips for the perfect burn

01

First Burn

Allow your candle to burn until the wax pool reaches the edges on the first use. This prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn throughout the candle's life. Typically, this takes about 2-3 hours.

02

Trimming the Wick

Keep wicks trimmed to about 5mm before each use. This promotes a clean burn, reduces sooting, and helps maintain the candle's fragrance. Use a wick trimmer or scissors to trim carefully.

03

Burn Time

Never burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time. This helps preserve the wax and prevents the container from becoming too hot. Allow the candle to cool completely before relighting.

04

Safety First

Place your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, flammable materials, and out of reach of children and pets. Always extinguish before leaving the room or going to sleep.
