Prop and interiors stylist Kira Corbin sets out Big Dipper Wax Works’ candles on her dinner table. They sell them at her local grocer, so she can buy them in a pinch — but more than the convenience, she likes that they are natural. “If you’re burning something, you’re ultimately breathing it in,” she says. “Also, the scent is very subtle and works well with dining.” The color options here are great, too, with some even more vivid options than the Greentree candles above.

Crafted from 100% pure beeswax, these tapers provide a clean, non-toxic burn that lasts up to 12 hours. Unlike paraffin-based alternatives, our candles release negative ions that purify the air while infusing your space with a subtle, natural honey aroma. The 100% cotton wicks are free of lead and metal, ensuring a safe and eco-friendly burn.
At Big Dipper Wax Works, sustainability and purity are at the heart of our process. Our beeswax is ethically sourced, naturally filtered through clay for superior quality, and free from harmful additives or synthetic dyes. Each candle is hand-poured in small batches, ensuring artisanal craftsmanship in every pair.
