What are sculptural candles made of?

Votive sculptural candles are handcrafted from 100% natural soy wax with cotton wicks and phthalate-free fragrance oils. We use no paraffin wax and no synthetic additives — every piece is hand-poured in small batches in Orlando, FL.

Are sculptural candles safe to burn?

Yes. Votive sculptural candles are fully functional and safe to burn when placed on a heat-resistant surface. For best results, burn in a candle-safe dish to catch melted wax and preserve the sculpture's shape longer. Never leave a lit candle unattended.

What makes Votive Candle Co. different from other candle brands?

Votive Candle Co. combines fine art sculpture with eco-conscious candle making. Every piece is inspired by classical art — Greek mythology, 19th century marble sculpture, and figural forms — and hand-poured in small batches using 100% natural soy wax and phthalate-free fragrances. Made in Orlando, FL.

Are Votive candles pet- and child-safe?

Yes. Our candles are made without paraffin, toxins, or harmful chemicals, making them safer for homes with pets and children. As with all candles, keep them out of reach and never leave them burning unattended.

How long do soy wax sculptural candles burn?

Burn time varies by size. Small sculptural candles (2–4 oz) burn 20–30 hours. Medium pieces (6–8 oz) burn 40–60 hours. Large sculptures (10–14 oz) burn 60–90 hours. For best results, burn until the entire top surface melts edge-to-edge on the first burn.

How long does shipping take?

Every Votive piece is handmade to order and ships within 3–6 business days from our Orlando, FL studio. US shipping is $7.95 flat rate, free on orders over $100. International shipping is available — rates are calculated at checkout. We accept returns within 7 days of delivery for unused items in original condition.

Do you offer local pickup?

No, we do not currently offer local pickup. All orders ship from our Orlando studio. Contact us at contact@votivecandlestore.com with any questions.

Are soy candles better than paraffin?

Yes. Soy wax burns cleaner, longer, and is plant-based. Paraffin is petroleum-derived and can emit toxic compounds including toluene and benzene. Our candles use only 100% non-GMO soy wax.

Are scented candles toxic or harmful to breathe?

Not ours. Votive Candle Co. uses only phthalate-free fragrance oils or therapeutic-grade essential oils. We never use synthetic additives or biohazard-labeled compounds, so our candles burn clean and safe indoors.

How do I care for my candle to avoid tunneling?

On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edges before extinguishing — this sets the memory ring and prevents tunneling. Trim the wick to 5mm before each burn. For sculptural candles, limit burns to 1 hour at a time to preserve the shape.

Are Votive candles safe around children and pets?

Yes. Our candles contain no paraffin, lead, heavy metals, or phthalates, making them safer for households with children and pets. As with any open flame, never leave a burning candle unattended and keep out of reach.

💧FillingAdd 3–5 drops of your preferred essential oil, or combine with a small amount of water in the dish. Do not overfill.
🕯️Heat sourceUse with an unscented tea light or a compatible electric warmer. Check the warmer is the right size for your burner before use.
🧼CleaningAllow the dish to cool completely. Wipe out residual oil with a dry cloth or cotton pad before adding a new blend. Deep clean with mild soap and warm water occasionally.
⚗️Essential oilsWe recommend pure, high-quality essential oils. Avoid synthetic fragrance oils which can leave sticky residue and may not be safe when heated.
🔥SafetyNever leave a lit tea light unattended. Keep away from children, pets, and flammable materials. Place on a heat-resistant surface.

Can I use any essential oil?

Yes — you can use any pure essential oil or blend. We recommend starting with 3–5 drops. Avoid synthetic fragrance oils as they can leave residue and some are not safe when heated. Look for oils that are labelled as therapeutic-grade or 100% pure.

How long does the fragrance last per session?

This varies by oil and warmer temperature, but most oils diffuse actively for 2–4 hours per session. Once the scent fades, simply clean the dish and add a fresh blend.

Is it safe around pets?

Some essential oils are harmful to cats, dogs, and other pets — particularly tea tree, eucalyptus, citrus oils, and peppermint. We recommend researching pet-safe oils before use in rooms where animals spend time. Our ceramic and resin materials are inert and pet-safe when not heated.

Do I need water in the dish?

Not necessarily. Many oil burners work with neat essential oil in the dish; some people prefer to dilute with a small amount of water to extend the session. Electric warmers typically work best with neat oil — check your warmer's instructions.
