Glōam candles are made from 100% beeswax in Santa Barbara, California inspired by the surrounding natural beauty and the special California spectrum of light that soaks and engulfs nature from the mountains to the ocean. The candles are hand-crafted by a traditional technique of repeatedly dipping cotton wicks into hot melted beeswax sourced from bee farms mixed with natural plant dyes. In this manner, beautiful smooth candles with unique colors are slowly created, their form expanding with each dip. The gentle aroma of honey emanating from these candles further enriches the space when they are lit, purifying the air and enlivening the senses.

Inspiration

GLŌAM is infused with a life of exploration, curiosity, and the natural world—crafting candles that illuminate stories. Each candle is the culmination of a process inspired by long nights among generations: the idea of trying to capture the nuance, the smell, the texture, the color, the warmth, the glow, and the feel of that moment.


While living in a farmhouse in Southern France, Sigal would experiment in the kitchen with color dyes mixing and playing with an assortment of plants, herbs, flowers, and fruit peels — all foraged from the garden and the nearby hills. She would heat them on the stove using different combinations to try to extract distinctive pigments. Toward the evening after a trip to the marché, her family would join together to prep and cook dinner for the night, usually a meal with one too many steps while the smell of burning wood from the fireplace gently wafted through the living areas. 

Her family would sit outside under the oak tree into the late hours, usually bundled in a big wool blanket reminiscing and laughing in the flickering shadows of the candles accompanying the evening. Candles were very central to moments spent together in the countryside, since they always elevated even the most unostentatious moments. This was when Sigal started to feel inspired and curious to create candles from scratch, by using the rawest natural materials, inspired by the colors of Southern France discovered on walks, drives, and time spent in nature.
