Votive Beeswax Candles
Votive candles keep their classic short, rounded shape and give off a warm, golden glow. Ours are made from 100% pure beeswax with a cotton wick — no paraffin, no soy blends, no synthetic fragrance. Because beeswax burns hotter and cleaner than other waxes, these last up to twice as long as a comparable soy or paraffin votive: roughly 10 hours per candle.
Refills vs. in Glass — Pick the Right One
This is the part that trips people up, so we're putting it up front: a votive candle needs a holder to burn safely. The melted wax pools as it burns, and an unheld votive will make a mess or become a fire hazard.
- Votive in Glass: comes in its own glass holder. Ready to light, no extra purchase needed.
- Votive Refills: bare wax candles only, no holder included. Buy this option only if you already own votive cups or holders from a previous purchase.
If you're not sure which you have at home, "in Glass" is the safer default.

Detailed Description
Each votive is poured from beeswax filtered for clarity and consistency, then finished with a cotton wick sized to burn evenly across the full candle. Use them for daily lighting, gifts, or events — a 12-pack covers a table setting without running out mid-evening.
