Shoalwick, small batch candles and fragrance oils from Martha's Vineyard

Poured by hand
in small batches

Every Shoalwick candle starts in a pot on the stove of our island studio. We pour a few dozen at a time, so every jar gets a close look before it leaves.

Melt

Soy and coconut wax, warmed slowly and checked with a thermometer. Never rushed, never scorched.

Scent

Our oils are blended by hand at the studio table and stirred in at just the right heat, so the scent holds.

Cure

Each jar rests for two weeks before it reaches the shelf. Then it is trimmed, lidded and ready to light.
