10 of the Best Candle Gifts

Think of this as Cinderella’s modern day glass slippers. They’re beautiful. They’re unique. And you most certainly need a pair. These beautiful handblown glass candlesticks were designed by Issy and crafted by hand by Egyptian artisans in Cairo. Though they look light as air, these candlesticks are surprisingly sturdy and will make a lively addition to any mantelpiece or table setting for decades to come.

If you can’t make it to Oaxaca to pick some up at Casa Viviana’s studio yourself, a few ordered on the internet will have to do. A true artisan, Viviana has been crafting her stunning signature candles for decades. Each layer of the candles are hand-poured to ensure longer burning times, but we feel it would be a shame to burn these beauties. Though you can get some incredible styles from her studio in Mexico, the 100% Chiapas beeswax candles are only available in a handful of designs when ordering from Obakki.

A mouthful for sure but one we could get behind saying more often. This quirky, feminine ceramic candleholder begins life as a beautiful candle that burns for 110 hours. After she melts her way down, she becomes the perfect place to arrange flowers, serves as a great addition to any shelf or even works as the ideal spot for tucking away spare tapers. She’ll never feel like an old flame.

If you’re going to be lighting candles left and right you better be ready to snuff them out in style. Urban Apothecary’s sleek set is perfect for getting those wicks just right and ensuring that your candles don’t burn away into nothingness before you’re ready. The handsome set is a wonderful addition to another gift or perfect on its own.

Or the Turkey Sunflowers. And the Autumnal Florals! Honestly, we want them all, and it can feel almost impossible to choose. Luckily these are at an affordable price point, so you won’t even feel guilty when you treat yourself to a candle or five. Mix and match to create a layered look or go for a set.
