Skull Candle in Gold Beeswax

Skulls are the representation of the human body and they can also personify the dead for spirits here and in the great beyond. Skulls are quite versatile within the craft and can have a variety of uses in your ritual. Our single jawed skulls are complete with sutures and have a vintage anatomical aesthetic. These skulls are made California from 100% pure California beeswax, ethically sourced from local apiaries. This candle comes with a natural honey fragrance from the beeswax, but otherwise is fragrance free. Our candles use 100% cotton wicks with no hard metals. This candle is coated with gold mica. The mica we use is sustainably sourced and mined without child labor from mines in the United States and Europe.

All of our candles are hand poured in California and crafted with intention for the discerning witch. We are a disposable plastic free company and our shipping materials, including our tape, is plastic free and biodegradable.

NOTE - If a company is claiming "Organic Beeswax", then it is from a foreign source. Organic beeswax rarely exists in the United States, as there is no way to ensure where a bee collects it pollen. Foreign sellers will falsely list beeswax as "organic" because no testing or proof is required by the US government for imported items labeled "organic" (most imported beeswax is from China). Our wax is produced from local California hives and from trusted apiaries.

Warning: All figural candles will drip wax and run, as there is no containment apparatus, Please make sure to burn the candle in a wax/fireproof container on a heat resistant surface. Burn within sight. Keep away from flammables. Keep away from children. Trim wick to ¼" before lighting. Do not burn more than 3-4 hours
