Our Votive Collections contain 4 premium, highly scented votive candles in each and are usually named for Detroit streets. Each collection has a theme such as music, automotive, or African American history. And each candle comes with it's own Scents of History™, a short story that gives the reader a little background on something unique in or around Detroit. You can read these histories by clicking on any candle name above.
Our votive candles are big, beefy and packed with scent. They are about 2 ounces each, and should burn 13-15 hours. Every one is hand poured by a real person, not a robot or machine. Because of this, you may find slight imperfections and differences between each candle. Collections are packaged in a handsome box with a classy oatmeal pinstripe design suitable for gift giving.
As with all our candles, we only use safe zinc wicks. We never use lead wicks. Zinc is a cooler burning wick and lasts longer than paper or cotton.
Our votives use a special formulation of wax that is designed to liquefy within the votive holder. For that reason, we strongly recommend that you use a good votive holder to ensure best results.
