Shop

The shop opens when we can actually post you a candle.

There is nothing listed for sale here yet. We're opening wholesale accounts with New Zealand candle makers, and no candle goes on this page until one is signed, the stock is in hand, the maker has confirmed in writing that it was poured here, and we have a photo we're allowed to publish.

Tell us when it opens

One email, once, when there's something real on the shelf.

Which part you pick helps us decide what to open first: the waitlist counts by interest are the only demand signal we have.

One email when it opens. We don't sell or share your address.

Nothing is charged. There is nothing to buy here yet, and we won't pretend otherwise.

What will be here

What a listing will say, once there is one.

This is the format, not a preview of stock. Nothing below describes a candle that exists in our hands today.

Who poured it, and where

The maker's name and town, linked to their own site, plus the written confirmation date behind our "made in New Zealand" claim.

Wax, wick and burn time

In the maker's own words and figures, credited to them, with a link to the page we took them from. We never write a burn time ourselves.

Price incl. GST, and what delivery adds

One number, GST included, with the delivery rate and the free-delivery threshold stated on the page rather than discovered at checkout.

What you won't see: star ratings, "bestseller" badges, review counts or scent notes we wrote ourselves. Read how we source facts for the full rule.

Buy one today

New Zealand makers whose own sites say where they pour.

These are not our stock and not our partners. They're real makers we read up on, recorded from their own public pages with the date we read them. The links are plain — we earn nothing from them.
