More about Ocoee House

Our candles are lovingly made every week in our workshop in Loch Lomond, Scotland, and are naturally organic & vegan. They are made with 100% natural soy wax, each scented with sustainably sourced fragrance oils. The wick used is a German made ECO wick, which is a flat, core-less cotton wick, braided with thin paper filaments which produces a clean and even burn. All candles are poured in small batches and left to set in our studio, where on completion and quality control, they are packaged into printed recycled cardboard tubes
