Half Light

4.9 from 486 reviews Read them

Warm resin over a soft beeswax base, with just enough pepper at the top to keep it from going sweet. It is the scent we built the workshop around and the one most people come back for.

The first burn

Give it three hours,
once.

Soy remembers the first burn. Leave it lit until the melted wax reaches the glass all the way around, which takes about three hours in a 400g vessel, and it will burn flat for the rest of its life. Cut it short and it tunnels.

5mmTrim the wicks to this before every burn. It stops the black tips and the soot.
4hrThe longest single burn we recommend. Put the lid on and come back to it.
10mmStop burning when this much wax is left, so the glass never gets hot enough to crack.

Snuffer and tray

A brass bell on a turned handle with a shallow ceramic tray to rest it in. Snuffing puts the flame out without pushing smoke across the room, which matters more than it sounds.
