Western Isles

Description

There are currently three candles in this range: Pabaigh, Orasaigh and Carragaraich.

  • Pabaigh: inspired by a small island off the coast of Barra, the candle captures the wild beauty and atmosphere of the Hebridean islands. Created to evoke the feeling of the sea settling after a storm, this beautiful fragrance combines fresh coastal air, earthy notes and a hint of salty sea spray, reminiscent of windswept shores and the rugged landscape of Pabaigh.
  • Orasaigh: inspired by the small island just off the coast of Castlebay, this beautiful Seaweed & Juniper-scented candle captures the wild and refreshing character of Barra’s coastline. With notes of fresh seaweed, aromatic juniper and crisp coastal air, the scent evokes the rugged shores, salty sea spray and natural beauty of this little island.
  • Carragaraich: inspired by the beach overlooking Castlebay at Uidh on Vatersay, this beautiful Marine-scented candle captures the fresh, invigorating feeling of the Atlantic coast. With notes of fresh sea air, salty ocean spray and crisp coastal breezes, it brings a little piece of Vatersay into your home.

All the candles have a refreshing and uplifting scent that evokes long walks along the shore, waves rolling onto the beach and the wild beauty of the Outer Hebrides and the water that surrounds them.

All candles are made in small batches on Isle of Barra.

Our candles have a 40+ hour burn time, allowing you to enjoy their beautiful island-inspired fragrances for many hours. To get the best and safest burn from your candle, always place it on a stable, heat-resistant surface and keep it away from draughts, flammable materials, children and pets. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

Before each use, trim the wick to approximately 5mm and allow the candle to burn until the wax has melted evenly across the surface. Do not burn the candle for more than 4 hours at a time, and discontinue use when approximately 10mm of wax remains at the bottom of the jar. Allow the candle and container to cool completely before handling.
