Brand story

Slow North

Slow North started the way a lot of good things do: in a backyard garage, with a new baby in the house. In 2015, after her first son was born, founder Michelle Simmons went looking for candles with ingredients she actually wanted to breathe around her family. She didn't love what she found, so she started pouring her own in Austin, Texas.

That garage project grew into a studio that still hand pours every candle in small batches. The recipes are lean: soy wax, cotton wicks, and 100% essential oils. No synthetic fragrance, no artificial dyes, no mystery list on the label. Soaps, linen sprays and reed diffusers followed, all built on the same idea. Fewer, better ingredients, and scents that are familiar.

Here's the part we really love. Slow North gives 10% of its profits to four causes: the Central Texas Food Bank, The SAFE Alliance, RAICES, and Kiva micro-loans. So the candle on your nightstand is also helping keep pantries stocked and neighbors supported back home in Texas and around the world.

Simple ingredients, easy rituals, and a little good done. That's Universal Design with a warm glow.

Why We Love It

Snip your wicks and snuff each flame gently for a cleaner, brighter candle glow.

Blowing out a candle usually means a puff of smoke in your face and a splash of wax on the table. This set fixes both. You get a wick trimmer that reaches right down into the jar, and a bell snuffer that puts the flame out without smoke or splatter. Both are stainless steel with a matte black finish, and they tuck into their own cotton pouch between uses.

Trim to about a quarter inch before you light, snuff when you're done, and your candles burn cleaner, brighter, and longer, with less soot on the glass.

Good design does the awkward part for you.

Description

A perfect addition to any candle lover's collection.

Whether you're a candle pro or just breaking into the candle game, this set has everything you need to keep your candles in check.

Properly caring for your candles promotes a cleaner, brighter burn, reduces unnecessary smoke and carbon buildup on candle vessels.

  • Candle Snuffer: Place the bell over the candle's flame until it extinguishes.

Wipe clean after each use. Store them away for safekeeping between uses in the included cotton pouch.

Made of high-quality stainless steel with a black matte finish. Imported.
