At Copensense, we believe stillness is found in the details – the subtle textures, the gentle glow, and even the quiet sounds that shape our moments. For our unscented candles, we wanted to offer more than just pure light; we wanted to add another layer to your sensory experience. That's why we chose a special kind of heart for these candles: a natural, double-layer cherry wood wick. It’s a detail that transforms a simple candle into a thoughtful, unique gift or a personal treat.
Why Wood? The Beauty of Nature's Flame
Choosing a wick isn't just technical; it's about the feeling it evokes. We were drawn to wood wicks for their authentic, modern look and deep connection to nature. Unlike standard wicks, a wood wick offers unique visual appeal and, most enchantingly, a gentle, soothing crackle as it burns.
Imagine the sound of a miniature hearth – it transforms lighting a candle into a richer, more engaging moment of calm, perfect for yourself or as a gift of tranquility.
Crafted for Performance: The Double Layer Advantage
Our wicks aren't just any wood; they are flat, double-layer cherry wood wicks, carefully selected for their exceptional performance with natural waxes like our pure Nordic rapeseed wax. This design offers several benefits that enhance your experience:
-
Soothing & Stable Flame: The double layer helps create a consistent, reliable flame, bringing a steady, warm glow to your space.
-
Fast & Reliable Ignition: Lighting your moment of stillness should be effortless.
-
No Softening: These maintain their structure beautifully in the melted wax pool.
-
Unmatched Aesthetics: The clean line of the wood adds a touch of organic elegance to the minimalist design of our vessels.
A Perfect Pairing: Meticulously Tested
Finding the right wick is a science and an art. We spent countless hours testing to ensure our cherry wood wicks perform perfectly with our 100% natural rapeseed wax and handcrafted vessels. This meticulous process guarantees an efficient burn and allows the pure simplicity of the unscented candle to shine, ensuring a high-quality experience whether it's for you or a handmade gift.
Nature's Mark: The Authentic Color Bleed
One of the unique characteristics you might notice as your unscented wood wick candle burns is a subtle, beautiful color bleeding from the cherry wood into the wax pool closest to the wick. Because we use pure, natural rapeseed wax with absolutely no additives, there's nothing to mask this lovely, natural interaction.
This gentle hue is not a flaw; it's an authentic mark of the natural materials at work, a whisper of the wood's essence infusing the wax. It’s another reminder of the genuine, unadulterated craft behind every Copensense piece, adding to its unique story and making each candle a truly one-of-a-kind gift.
Caring for Your Wood Wick
To ensure the best performance and that gentle crackle for you or your gift recipient:
-
Trim Before Each Use: Always trim your wood wick to about 4mm before lighting.
-
First Burn: As with all our candles, allow the wax pool to reach the edges of the jar on the first burn to prevent tunneling.
An Invitation to Listen: A Gift of Stillness
Our cherry wood wick candles offer a unique invitation: to not just see the light, but to listen to the quiet sounds of stillness. It’s another small detail, carefully chosen to enhance your mindful moments and bring a deeper sense of authentic calm into your home.
Consider it a mindful gift – a simple way to share peace and tranquility with someone special, or to treat yourself to a moment of sensory calm.
