Product Description

Set within a vintage-style workshop tin, this candle takes a familiar garage object and gives it a proper place in the home.

Each one is hand-poured into a real metal grease tin, based on the containers used in workshops and motorsport environments. It is recognisable straight away, which is exactly what gives it its strength.

Finished in Shell-style colours with a warm-toned wax, it carries real presence. It works as a talking point when noticed, and something reliable when not.
Built to be used, not just displayed.

Smoked Vanilla Fragrance

Fresh bergamot layered over warm cedar and clove, settling into a rich smoky vanilla base. Smooth, warm and steady.

Where it fits

  • Evenings at home
  • Living room and lounge spaces
  • After work wind-down
  • Slower weekends

Gifting

A dependable choice for car guys, petrolheads and mechanic gifts. Feels interesting without being risky, which makes it an easy win.

Care & Safety

To get the best from your Glowsmith candle, please burn and care for them by following the guidelines below.

Candle Safety

All candles have a naked flame and if not used correctly can cause fires. It’s important to read the safety information that comes with your candle and to burn it in accordance with it. Most importantly:

  • NEVER leave a candle unattended, however safe you may feel it is.
  • NEVER move a burning candle as you may get burned.
  • KEEP AWAY from things which can catch fire, such as curtains, clothing and furniture.
  • KEEP AWAY from children and pets.
  • ALWAYS use a heat-resistant candle holder and extinguish when 2cm of wax remains at the base of the candle. The candle base can get hot and may burn surfaces such as wooden coffee tables, baths and tablecloths if a heat-resistant candle holder is not used.
  • ALWAYS place on a level, flat and stable surface.
  • Do not use lid as a candle holder/coaster.
  • This product is not grease and should not be used for greasing applications.

Candle Care

Tips and tricks to get the best burn from your Glowsmith candle:

  • Burn your candle for 2 to 4 hours each time, especially on the first burn. Burning longer than 2 hours prevents your candle from ‘tunnelling’ and burning less than 4 hours prevents pillar candles from leaking.
  • Trim your wick to 1cm before each burn. This prevents excessive soot and ensures the longest burn time from your candle.
  • Keep an eye on the flame. If it smokes, flickers repeatedly, the flame becomes too high or contacts the side of a container candle, extinguish it. This can often be caused by melt pool debris such as matches. Make sure the melt pool is clear before lighting your candle.
  • When extinguishing your candle, use a candle snuffer instead of blowing it out. This will prevent wax being ejected from the candle.
  • Avoid burning in a draft. This can cause an uneven burn which in turn causes excessive soot and increased the risk of pillar candles leaking.
  • Do not burn the candle if the candle, container, or labels are damaged.
  • Keep the lid on container candles when not in use and keep candles covered up when not in use. This prevents dust from gathering on the candle, sunlight bleaching and fragrance deterioration.

Love this scent

This smells great and you can really smell them when they're burning in the room. They seem to last for a long time too.

No more wasted wax

I used to buy candles from supermarkets and they’d tunnel down the middle every time — total waste of wax. The Glowsmith one burns evenly from edge to edge, and the industrial-style design actually fits my office setup. It’s the first candle I’ve not hidden when mates come over

Does exactly what it says on the tin (no pun intended)

The candle arrived very well packaged and you could start to smell some of the scent straight away, even before opening! Smells great and really looks the part, makes a great alternative to a standard candle for a mechanical friend
