In Greek mythology, the pomegranate bound Persephone to the underworld — six seeds eaten, six months of winter given to the earth. The fruit has carried that weight of meaning ever since: abundance and loss, beauty and consequence, the cycle of seasons made edible. Few objects carry as much mythology per inch.
The Pomegranate Candle is hand-poured from 100% natural soy wax at our Orlando studio, and the interior is the surprise — split open, the candle reveals a textured interior of wax seeds, shaped to echo the real thing. It is as striking unlit on a shelf as it is burning.
Available scents: Unscented · French Vanilla · Amber Musk · Palo Santo Patchouli · Mango Papaya · White Eucalyptus · Bohemian Rose · Lemon Lavender · Morning Mimosa · Tropical Guava · Musk. All fragrances are phthalate-free — choose your scent at checkout.

Candle care
- 🕯️ First burn: Allow the wax pool to reach the edges before extinguishing — this prevents tunnelling and reveals the seed interior evenly.
- ✂️ Trim the wick to 5 mm before every burn for a steady, even flame.
- ⏱️ Burn sessions: Keep each session to 3–4 hours maximum.
- 🌊 Never burn dry: Stop burning when 1 cm of wax remains at the base.
- 💨 Extinguish safely: Use a candle snuffer — never blow out your candle.
- ☀️ Keep cool: Store away from direct sunlight and heat to preserve fragrance and the sculptural shape.
- 🖤 Display option: The pomegranate is as beautiful unlit as it is burning — many customers display it as a decorative object without ever lighting it.
