Because peonies had an important role in classical Japanese art we thought it fitting to use a haiku by Yosa Buson (1716-1784) to describe this candle: About to bloom, And exhale a rainbow, The peony! Individually hand poured in Vermont, each candle is made with American-grown soy, a lead-free cotton wick primed with vegetable based wax, and unique blends of premium grade fragrance and essential oils. Seamless glass vessel is recyclable/reusable. VEGAN 5oz Custom labels available at additional cost. Please message us for details.
