Our Story

Every journey leaves something behind.

Every candle in the collection is one Lithuanian city, translated into scent. Vilnius is rain on cobblestones and black tea gone cold. Kaunas is river air before the city wakes. Klaipėda is salt and rope and silver harbour light. Nida is warm sand at dusk. Nothing is invented at a desk — each blend starts with a walk, a season, and an hour of the day.

We pour in small batches from natural soy wax, dress each vessel by hand, and send it out in packaging that leaves nothing behind. Light one, and the place comes back before you've finished the first breath.

01 — The idea
It began with a jar of sand from Nida and the stubborn feeling that a place can be remembered more accurately by its air than by a photograph.
02 — The method
Every city is walked first. We note the light, the water, the trees, the hour — then spend months blending until the wax smells like standing there.
03 — The promise
Small batches, natural soy wax, and a vessel worth keeping. Poured by hand in Lithuania, never rushed to meet a season.
INSIDE THE ATELIER

Poured by hand,
in small batches

Every candle begins as natural soy wax, melted slowly and blended with fragrance until the scent settles. No shortcuts, no machines — only patience, and a memory of a place.

Made in Lithuania.

In Situ

Where they live.

Linen, concrete, low winter light. Our candles are made for real rooms — a kitchen table at dusk, a bathroom after a long walk, a windowsill facing the Baltic.

How long does shipping take?

Lithuania: 1–2 working days. European Union: 2–5 working days. Rest of world: 5–10 working days. Every order is packed by hand within 24 hours and you receive a tracking link the moment it leaves the studio.

What is your returns policy?

Unused candles in their original packaging can be returned within 14 days of delivery for a full refund. Write to us and we will send return instructions the same day. If something arrives damaged, send a photo and we replace it immediately at our cost.

How long will my candle burn?

Each candle holds 140 g of natural soy wax and burns for up to 35 hours. On the first burn, let the wax pool reach the edge of the vessel — around 2–3 hours — so the candle burns evenly for the rest of its life.

How should I care for my candle?

Trim the wick to 5 mm before every burn, never burn for more than four hours at a time, and keep the flame away from draughts. Stop burning when 10 mm of wax remains, then wash the vessel with warm water and reuse it.

What is inside the wax?

100% natural soy wax, a braided lead-free cotton wick, and premium phthalate-free fragrance oils. No paraffin, no dyes, no animal products — and packaging that is plastic-free from box to tape.
