Some stories are written in books.
Others are carried by candlelight.
Welcome to The Thirteenth Wick — a collection of handcrafted candles inspired by forgotten places, lost legends, and the mysteries that linger just beyond the edge of the known world.
Every fragrance begins with a story.
A lantern glowing through the fog of a deserted shoreline. A chapel hidden deep within black waters. A door found in the woods where no path should exist. These fragments of forgotten worlds are gathered, preserved, and transformed into scent.
Hand-poured in small batches, each candle is crafted with exceptional care using premium ingredients and carefully layered fragrance blends designed to evoke atmosphere, memory, and imagination. We use the finest 100% natural soy wax blend from sustainably sourced, GMO-free soybeans. It’s biodegradable, vegan-friendly, cruelty free, and carefully engineered to burn cleanly. We believe a candle should do more than scent a room. It should transport you somewhere else entirely.
At the heart of our collection is the legend of Vesper — a mysterious keeper of lost places who wanders the spaces where maps end and stories begin. It is said that Vesper carries thirteen keys, each unlocking a different mystery. Every candle within our collection represents one of those discoveries.
Whether legend or truth, we leave that for you to decide.
When you light a candle from The Thirteenth Wick, you are not simply filling a room with fragrance.
You are opening a door.
The flame is the key.
The story is waiting.
Born in Mystery.
An important note about our packaging - because it matters.
Our packaging materials are fully compostable / recyclable. Packing peanuts are made from plant starch and will also dissolve in water if you are unable to compost them. Once your story is complete, please recycle your candle vessel, storing pens, pencils, paint brushes etc or may be even growing seedlings. Get creative ! We’d love to see how you continue the story, don’t forget to tag us on Instagram - if we like what we see you could be in for a treat !
