candle safety and Burning instructions

Make the most of your re.verre candle

Keep the candle wick(s) trimmed to ¼ inch. The longer your wick is, the larger your flame will be, and the more quickly the max will melt away.

Always burn your re.verre candle for 2-4 hours at a time (depending on candle size) to ensure the wax melts to the edge of the vessel. This will prevent your candle from 'tunnelling' and leaving a ring of un-melted wax inside the container. Melted wax releases your candle's scent, so a long burn will also maximize your candle's scent throw.

When ¼ inch of wax remains, discontinue use to prevent heat damage to the vessel.

Please also follow these standard candle safety instructions to prevent a fire hazard or injury:

The container may become hot while burning the candle.
Do not burn the candle on or near anything that can catch fire. A level, protected, fire-resistant surface away from drafts and excessive vibrations is best.
Keep the candle free from foreign matter matches, wick trimmings, etc.
Keep the candle out of the reach of children and pets.
Burn the candle within sight, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
Do not place a lid on the container while burning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please contact us if you can't find the answer to your question below.

What are re.verre candles made from?

We make all re.verre candles from American Organic's high-quality Freedom soy wax. It's 100% natural, non-toxic, and much better for the environment than other, more common waxes such as paraffin or soy wax blends. Soy wax also burns more slowly than other waxes, to give you a longer-lasting candle.

Variations in both color and texture of soy wax are common due to its natural characteristics, so don't worry if your candle is off-white or isn't 100% smooth. It's a sign that you've purchased a natural product.

We use quality flat braided high-tension paper (HTP) wicks in our candles. They're made from all-natural fibres, including cotton and paper, and are clean-burning with a more efficient flame than other wick types.

Are re.verre candle fragrances phthalate free?

Yes. We carefully select our fragrance oils to ensure they are all phthalate-free and candle safe. Find out more about phthalates here.

Are re.verre candles vegan?

Re.verre is a vegan-owned business; all of our candles are plant-based and vegan-friendly.

How long do re.verre candles last?

Because the size and shape of each re.verre candle is different, we can only provide an estimate of burn time. If you keep your candle's wick(s) trimmed to ¼ inch and burn it for 2-4 hours at a time, a smaller 1-2 wick (6-7 oz.) candle will last approximately 40 hours, and a larger (12-14 oz.) 3-4 Wick candle will last around 55 hours.

How do I clean my re.verre vessel so I can use it again after the candle has burned out?

Place your candle vessel in a warm oven (at around 140 degrees Fahrenheit) until the wax melts. Carefully remove it from the oven and once the wax has cooled to a safe temperature, wipe out the wax with a paper towel. Compost the paper and wax and clean the vessel in hot, soapy water, ready for re-use.

Can I get my re.verre vessel refilled with a new candle?

Yes. Once your candle has burned out, you can simply contact us to get a quote and purchase a refill.

You can buy our candles at Hooked on Bragg in Bragg Creek and at select pop-up markets in and around Bragg Creek and Calgary. Follow us on Instagram to find out where we'll be next.
