Some of SHAUN’S craft works:
Our Button
Macaron Soaps
are cute as a
button…
Designed to love every curve of
your body, our button soaps are
created for a luxuriously
decadent experience. Easy to
grip, our soap follows the curve
of your body without getting lost
at the bottom of the tub. Try
them in every scent…
Yes, it’s a candle,
but in a beautiful
Asian bowl.
Add style to any occasion,
whether it’s dinner for two or a
party for eight. As the candle
burns, the “rice” remains lit from
the inside, and gleams through
the “rice-grain” windows built
into the traditional-styled bowl
and spoon.

Meditation
Candles…
Our Zodiac Meditation Candles
feature original Rosendale
Waxworks zodiac artwork
revealed as the wax slowly melts
away. Designed for a one hour
burn time, these candles are
perfect for a soothing meditative
experience. Find your birth sign
or collect all 12 for a beautiful
collection of zodiac art. The
perfect gift for a friend or loved
one.
For Wilda, making candles has become a channel for
her lifelong passion for art and she indulges her delight
in tracking down the perfect scents to carry her back to
precious moments in her past, and yours.
Shaun practices his latest outlet of art, inventing and
producing new kinds of candles, in the shop’s front
window. Passers-by will often find him in his candle-
making corner; a perfect space to share his newest
discoveries with them.
“Candle making has been thought of as an art
for only the past few decades. It’s just beginning.” Shaun
These subtle scents represent happy memories that don’t discriminate
between “good” and “bad”. As an arena for experimenting with evocative
and unusual aromas, the Comfort Zone line offers limitless possibilities.
Here you will find a whiff of the unusual: subtle and evocative but never
overbearing.

Art Discovery Lamps
Set of six artists’
self portraits
Above: what goes into the making
of one of our lamps. Next: the
custom wick. Below, the art lies
concealed beneath the wax.
How quickly would you recognize famous artists' self
portraits, revealed tantalizingly slowly by the burning
of a wick at the center of a shallow candle? How
quickly would you recognize Van Gogh's self portrait,
for example? We now offer both a single portrait
“lamp” and a set of six.
Relax with this set of calming puzzles.
Do you every so often feel the need to zone out but find it hard to
unwind? We've a suggestion: try gazing into a candle flame. And not
just any candle but candles we're calling "Art Discovery Lamps." We
call them "lamps" because, as they burn, they illuminate the gradual
recovery of some familiar and precious art.
Whose portrait will it be? We don't tell you, it'll be up to you to tell
that as the candle burns.
Reveal starts in 5 minutes and continues to full reveal in about 50
minutes.
