Notes
Short pieces from the house about candles, reading, and the hours after dark.
Reading late
A lamp, a chair, one candle, and the phone in another room. Here is how we set up the reading hour, and which of our six candles suits which hour.
A phrase people use
Dark academia is a look people search for, and many candles wear the name. Here is what it means, what it is not, and where a library at night fits in.
Giving one
Which of the six candles suits which reader, what is printed on the label, and why it is worth ordering about two weeks before the day.
What is in the jar
After Dark is poured in coconut apricot wax and Open Hours in soy. Here is what each wax is, what they share, and how they differ, in plain words.
Looking after it
Burn it to the edge the first time, keep the wick short, rest it after four hours, and stop at the last half inch. Then you get every hour in the jar.
Six candles on two shelves, poured to order in the USA.
