This artisan candle collection works to ensure that it is filling a gap in the market that requires scent-related products to be more natural and less harmful to the environment.
The 'Lux et Terra' brand started as a project by a husband and wife duo that wanted to create a collection of candles that are safe, clean-burning and made with sustainably grown and harvested ingredients. The resulting candles do just that and are made from beeswax and scented with natural ingredients like coconut, honey and various florals. The packaging of the candle collection is minimal, with the products being placed inside glass jars with simple, gilded labels.
This candle collection's avoidance of soy and paraffin in its ingredients works to create a range that is sophisticated, sustainable and yet still functional.
