Why we love Charleston Candle Co.:
"We create and hand-pour all of our candles in small batches locally in Charleston, SC. Each scent we choose for our candles represents a historic or significant part of Lowcountry culture. Charleston has been voted time and time again as one of the top destinations in the world, and we want to share a bit of this magical city with you.
 
All of our candles are made with all natural soy wax. Our soy wax is produced from US grown soybeans and create clean burning, eco-friendly candles that contain no toxins, carcinogens, or pollutants. Soy candles also last longer than typical paraffin wax candles. We also use eco-friendly candle wicks made from natural cotton and paper threads that are lead and zinc free.
 
Our fragrance oils are certified Clean Scents which means they are free of harmful ingredients like phthalates, carcinogens, mutagens, reproductive toxins, organ toxins, and acute toxins.
 
We want our candles to fill your home with light and beautiful scent, not harmful pollutants, so we choose materials that are safe for you and your family."
