Description

Our eco, fair trade dinner candles, hand poured in Indonesia in British Colour. Colourful candles with a twist. Hand-poured by artisans our colourful candles are a stylish addition to any home, perfect for entertaining or giving as a gift. Rose Beige The first recorded use of beige as a colour name in English was in 1887. A tincture of rose or pink as used in heraldry. Standardised in 1934. Saxe Blue A colour name popular in the textile and allied trades since 1550. The word Saxe is not English but is adopted from the French, where it means Saxony or Saxon. Saxony Blue was a universally-used synonym for Smalt as early as 1550. Likewise Bleu de Saxe has long been a synonym for Prussian Blue, but since 1753 Saxon Blue has been most familiar as a widely-used name for indigo extract. Jet Black Jet is the hard black lignite, which takes a brilliant polish, and by association the name has been used to describe the most intense black. Primrose Yellow Matched to flowers of that name growing in Surrey, England. 24.5cm tall. 8 hour burn time, with a tall clean flame. Non-drip. Packaged in a crisp, kraft card box, easily recyclable. Fair Trade made, hand poured in Indonesia. No animal derived ingredients. 100% Stearin wax (veg origin). Pure cotton wick (lead/metal free). Ecological colour dyes, paraffin free. Candle Care & Safety: Handle with care. The hand-poured nature of the product means that this is a delicate item and wax discs can separate if rattled too much. Best when lit for 4 hours at a time. Stop burning when 2cm of unmelted candle remains. Leave 10 cm between candles when burning.

British Colour Standard was revived by art and design duo Jackie Piper and Victoria Whitbread, after they found an old colour dictionary in a charity shop. The pair brought the hues found hidden in the book’s pages back to life, realising them across a range of well-crafted homeware products that boast sustainable, ecological or Fair Trade provenance. Mix and match from the rainbow of colours across the candle and candlestick collection, or treat your table to a set of vibrant jute placemats and eye-catching handmade glassware.
