Inspired by our beloved logo featuring a noble lion - a collection of heraldic, sculptural animal heads. Here a wistful wolf, often featured in historic coats of arms, makes his debut. An eco, fair trade candle, hand poured in British Colour Standard Old Rose, these unique, shaped candles make a wonderful gift- they really are a piece of sculpture for the home.
Features
Candle Care
- These beautiful, sculptural candles have been tested to burn safely but because of their unique shape and size there is a risk of more wax pooling/melting than with a standard shaped candle.
- The larger head shape may cause the flame to rise more highly than usual which may cause smoke, not typical of burning stearin wax.
- For best burning results, pay attention to trim the wick once an hour.
Safety
- Best when lit for 4 hours at a time
- Stop burning when 2cm of unmelted candle remains
- Leave 10 cm between candles when burning
- Always use a candleholder/plate under the candle
About British Colour Standard
Aiming to be the go-to brand for colour in the home for paint & interior accessories as well as championing eco, sustainable & Fair Trade products within their collections. Established 1931, British Colour Standard continues to create evergreen products. Discovering an old colour dictionary in an Oxfam shop began a journey to re-establish this long forgotten brand. A treasure trove of colour & rich history first established 1931. Out of use since the 1950’s, the art/design team of Jackie Piper & Victoria Whitbread acquired & accurately scanned the original colour dictionaries, establishing a digital profile for the many hundreds of colours created and logged in the 1930’s. These original colours & names are still used in their current collections. Derived and inspired from nature, flora & fauna, as well as semi-precious stones & spices, the main collections include many historic & special Royal colours, designed and used for coronations & special events.

They visit all their manufacturers, checking the quality of the materials and where they're being sourced from.
