Combatting The Literary Crisis - 8oz candle
COMBATTING THE LITERARY CRISIS | Fight the good fight one book at a time. The revolution is nigh, the stack is high, and we read at dawn.
Set the mood with Combatting The Literary Crisis, a small-batch candle hand-poured in Oakland for readers who treat reading as a position rather than a pastime. Attention spans are under siege. You are holding the line.
Choose your fragrance from nine house scents: spiced cinnamon and maple, smoky oud, bright lemon and cedar, soft rose and musk, and more. Light one and put the phone in another room.
Made with clean, high-quality ingredients, Combatting The Literary Crisis is for library defenders, deep-focus readers, and anyone who finished a book this week on principle.
Made in our California studio using a natural coconut soy wax blend, clean fragrance oils, and cotton-core wicks. Fragrances are phthalate-free and never tested on animals.
- Trim wick to ¼” before each burn
- Allow wax to melt fully to the edges on the first burn
- Never leave a burning candle unattended
