Since our ancestors arrived on the islands many years ago, Hawaiians have revered the gift of fire. Our Hawaiian candles preserve our island legacy, while capturing the look and feel of our tropical culture.
The benefits of our island candles range from serving as a simple relaxation aid to creating a unique décor and island accent for your home.
The authentic design of our Bamboo Candles is created by using a naturally-occurring hollow bamboo plant to form the candle holder, which encases a genuine beeswax blend candle.
We also make a graceful Bamboo Slant Candle which creates a more formal ambience, with a rounded bamboo shell that is higher on one side than the other.
For safety’s sake, the wicks of our Bamboo Candles are made without using lead. They contain either zinc or a tightly wrapped paper core. By trimming the candle to approximately one-half inch each time you light one, you can enjoy about 30 hours of even burning and soft candle glow (in a draft free environment).
The wax in all our candles is gently scented with tropical fragrances reminiscent of our native environment. Our soothing fragrances include Coconut, Plumeria, Passion Fruit, Rain, Pineapple, Pikaki, Strawberry Guava, and White Ginger, and Pikake, which is named after an Asian flower in the jasmine family.
To help turn your home into a calming sanctuary, consider the various island candle accessories we offer. In addition to the Bamboo Candles, you will find coconut shell candles, coconut floater candles, as well as pillar, votive and container candles. The prices range from only $8.50 for the Coconut Floating Bowl Candles to $24 for our large coconut bowl candle on a pedestal. 3” pillar candles are $13, 6” ones are $20 and votives are $2.75.
In addition, we offer candle accessories, such as our best-selling Pineapple Lantern, a crafted metal tea-light lamp that will add a warm tropical glow to any room. Six inches high, it comes with two pineapple tea lights and sells for $20.
We also offer attractive Hawaiian made ceramic votive candle holders that are graced by sea turtles and palm trees and fronds for only $10. Or you can opt for our candle dishes, styled in coconut wood ($15) or ceramic ($24).
The traditional charm of all our candle products will bring you many hours of enjoyment and a whiff of the tropics no matter where you live. Brighten you home and lighten your mood with the gifts of Pele.
