Handcrafted in small batches on our farm near Lough Derg in the west of Ireland, each candle is made using traditional, artisanal methods that honour both the craft and the land. Locally sourced beeswax is carefully poured by hand and paired with a natural cotton wick, allowing the candle’s natural golden colour and subtle texture to shine through. The result is an Irish beeswax candle with an authentic farmhouse feel and a truly individual character.
Naturally clean-burning and free from synthetic additives, beeswax candles are a considered choice for eco-conscious homes. Unlike soya wax candles, beeswax does not require chemical processing to become usable wax, remaining close to its natural state from hive to home. Its delicate, honey-like aroma occurs naturally, creating a soft ambience without artificial fragrance.
With its smooth finish, sculpted silhouette, and rustic elegance, this conical-top beeswax pillar candle complements both modern and traditional interiors. Whether styled as a standalone statement, used in a seasonal display, or chosen as a thoughtful sustainable gift, it offers beauty with purpose. For those looking to buy beeswax candles online in Ireland that are handcrafted, natural, and rooted in place, this candle is a quietly luxurious choice.

You may notice a light white or cloudy film developing on the surface of your beeswax candle over time. This is known as bloom.
Bloom is a completely natural process and a sign of pure, high-quality beeswax. It occurs when natural wax crystals rise to the surface and does not affect how the candle burns.
If you prefer a polished look, bloom can be gently removed by:
Lightly buffing with a soft cloth
Briefly warming the surface with your hands
Many people choose to leave bloom as it is — a quiet mark of authenticity.

To enjoy your beeswax candle safely and to get the best burn:
Trim the wick to approximately 5–7 mm before each burn
Always place the candle on a heat-resistant surface
Keep away from draughts for an even, steady flame
Allow the first burn to melt fully across the top to prevent tunnelling
Never leave a burning candle unattended
Keep out of reach of children and pets
Snuff the flame gently rather than blowing it out
With proper care, beeswax candles burn slowly, cleanly, and beautifully.
