Tar Scented Wooden Wick Candle.
Inspired by the beautiful, nearly thousand year old, Stave churches still standing to this day. Comes with a little booklet.
It was so important to tar the churches that it was the law in 1274. It had to be done before winter and after “leaf fall". It was mainly found on churches as it was too expensive for most ordinary people.
• What does it smell like?
Very smokey.
- Please make sure to read the care card as wooden wicks require a bit of extra love to burn optimally.
Note the swirl pattern is handmade like everything else so there are individual differences.

CARE GUIDE - For your safety and to make the candle last longer!
- Don’t burn your candle for more than 4 hours in a row -
1) Light wick from the base, CLOSEST to the wax, and ensure the full wick is alight.
2) First burn most important: Light your candle for long enough to ensure the melted wax reaches the edge of the glass. This can take up to 4 hours depending on the candle size. This prevents ‘tunnelling’ (wasted wax around the edge of the glass) which causes less scent throw as well as reduces the lifespan of the candle.
3) Keep wick trimmed to 0.3cm (1/8”) which is approximately the width of an USB-port. Remove any charred bits (a nail cutter works great for this or just pinch off with fingers). Only trim it once wax has cooled and DO NOT leave any trimmings in the candle.
4) The flame height might vary at times and occasionally appears to self-extinguish. Remember that even a ‘low’ flame melts the wax and diffuses scent.
If the flame taller than 1.5cm or exhausts black smoke: Eqstinguish the candle and trim the wick once the wax has cooled.
5) Once cooled the wax can naturally form an uneven surface and white patches. It does not affect the performance of the candle but is just a sign that your candle contains pure soy wax.

CANDLE SAFETY
Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from children, pets, draughty locations, flammable objects and hot sources. Place candles at least 10 cm apart and always on a heat resistant surface. Do not move once lit. On the first burn: Let the wax melt all the way to the edge before extinguishing. Do not burn for more than 4h at a time. Extinguish when it is minimum 1-2 cm remaining wax. Keep wick trimmed to 1/8".
