Know before you buy
Unlike standard glass, the alabaster is carved from a single block of stone in Spain. It is opaque, features unique natural veining, and provides a heavier, more sculptural presence that glows softly when the candle is lit.
No. Because alabaster is a natural material, the veining patterns on each container are unique. You should expect slight variations in the stone's appearance, making your specific piece one-of-a-kind.
Ernesto is a bold, atmospheric scent inspired by a Havana hotel. It features prominent notes of leather and tobacco, balanced by subtle hints of cigar smoke and a clean, waxen undertone.
The matching alabaster top is designed to serve as a decorative cover when the candle is not in use. It is best to remove it entirely while burning to ensure proper airflow and prevent the stone from overheating.
You can expect between 55 and 60 hours of burn time. To maximize this, ensure you trim the wick before each use and allow the wax pool to reach the edges of the container during the first burn.
Once the candle has finished, you can clean out the remaining wax with warm, soapy water. The durable stone vessel is designed to be repurposed as a decorative object, such as a small vase or a storage container for vanity items.
