Wicks

We like our flames clean and our glows hypnotic. Each cotton, wood, and specialty wick is crafted and tested for even burns, balanced melt pools, and that smooth, steady light every maker loves.

Wick Types, Selection, and Care

Selecting the right wick is essential for both performance and safety. Cotton wicks are a classic choice, offering smooth, even flames that work well with many wax blends. Wooden wicks add a modern flair and a gentle crackle, perfect for enhancing a cozy atmosphere. Pre-waxed wicks deliver convenience and uniformity, keeping their shape during pouring and ensuring consistent results. Wick sizing is just as important as wick type, choose based on your container diameter and wax formula to avoid tunneling, excessive smoking, or soot. Our wicks are tested for different burn environments so you can make the right choice for your project and customers.
