The studio.
Ahuriri & Orchard pour candles at a working orchard in Havelock North, and the proximity is the point — the fig, bay leaf, and rose geranium in their candles is harvested from trees the founder can see out the studio window. Single-origin in the way the local wineries are; written up the same way too.
Signature.
Fig-leaf-blackcurrant, oak-orchard, garden rose
Vessel.
Amber wine-bottle glass, hand-cut and refinished

Wine country. Candle makers in Hastings and Havelock North pour deliberately into amber glass, lean on fig, blackcurrant and oak, and treat scent the way the local vineyards treat varietals — single-origin, written-up, considered.
