What it is: A scented candle inspired by a lazy ramble in hidden thickets on Cape islands where marsh rose and swamp mallows suck brackish tides.Fragrance story: Ospreys hunt in estuary wetlands. Plovers plove. Hidden from old gray cedar houses, in hot summer thickets, brackish groundwater wells up. Small ponds and swampy marshes in summer are alive with birds, frogs and dragonflies. Big heavy mallow heads and wild roses shine like beacons in the dank, muddy grass. Style: Floral.Notes:- Top: mallow, sea lettuce- Middle: swamp rose, sweet pepper brush- Base: creeping bent grass, lichen mossHow to use: For the first lighting, allow the entire surface of the candle to be fully melted to maximize the full use of wax. Trim wick 1/4" before each lighting. The glass vessels are meant to be reused and repurposed. The first burn should be long enough for the surface layer to liquify to the edge to ensure even subsequent burns and prevent tunneling-we recommend 2 hours. Always protect the surface on which the candle sits and keep out of draft. Do not burn more than four hours at a time. Soy vegetable wax/cotton wick/glass 60-hour approximate burn time Made in the USA
