Ancient Candle Co

Ancient Candle Co. was born from a love of fine art and interior style. It was during the first Covid lockdowns in early 2020 that our founder Yvette Hardy discovered, (while styling her own home) that it was almost impossible to find high quality sculptural candles. Pieces that not only enhanced the mood in your space when lit, but were also aesthetically pleasing in their un-lit state.

With a family business knowledge in fine art, design and sculpture, (Yvette's husband is Liam Hardy, figurative Bronze Artist and founding Director of Sculpt Studios). It's with this knowledge that our first design, the 'La Femme' torso candle was created. We have since gone on to produce additional figures in our signature torso range. The 'L 'Homme' male torso and our La Mére pregnancy candle. These along with our ceramic inspired contemporary candles, our larger Ancient bust figures and our new Ambient Light scented Bee/Soy vessels round out the first series of the ACC collection.

With every step of the creative process from 3D design, mould making and pouring is done on site and by hand, we also have strong focus on sustainability. All of our candles are sculpted in sustainable, and ethically sourced soy blend waxes. Our production facility is 100% powered by solar and we also proudly pack and ship in recyclable materials
