FAQ's

Why are your candles made with wooden wicks?
There are several reasons we craft all of our candles with wooden wicks. To start, is there anything more cozy than listening to the crackle of a freshly stoked fire? We believe the light crackle of our wicks pairs perfectly with our luxurious scents. In addition to their beautiful aesthetic and comforting crackle, there are several other benefits. Wooden wicks do not mushroom, create very little carbon buildup, and evenly burn wax for an excellent distribution of scent (up to 35% more fragrance throw, compared to cotton wicks). In addition, our wooden wicks are manufactured in the USA.

What is coconut soy wax?
At Nineteen Twenty Two Candle Co, we make all of our candles with Virgin Coconut Soy Wax. There are several benefits that make this wax an ideal choice for luxury candles: It is a clean-burning, natural, and toxic free wax that has been clinically tested and dermatologist reviewed. Because it is natural it is completely biodegradable. Additionally, Coconut Soy Wax burns evenly and excels at distributing scent so you can fully enjoy the amazing fragrance blends from Nineteen Twenty Two Candle Co.

Do your fragrances contain essential oils?
Yes! Each of our proprietary fragrance blends are crafted with perfume quality scents that include essential oils sourced from all over the world. For more information on the essential oils used, please check the product description for each fragrance.

How do I care for my wooden wick candle?
Wooden wicks will need to be trimmed before each use to ensure a high quality burn. Remove excess burned material and keep wick to about 3/16" for the best result. Each purchase will come with a candle care card so you will have all the information you need to enjoy your candle to the fullest! Keep in mind with wooden wick candles you are burning real wood. Just like that cozy fireplace, there will be some amount of smoke/soot. Don't worry as this is normal and part of the wooden wick experience. See above below toxins and know that this is totally safe.

Is your packaging recyclable?
Yes! Nineteen Twenty Two Candle Co has gone through great lengths to make sure everything we use for packaging is recyclable. From the beautiful custom printed boxes to the water-activated, soy-ink packaging tape, rest assured all of our materials are sourced to be entirely recyclable or compostable.

How can I repurpose my candle jar?
We highly recommend repurposing your beautiful Nineteen Twenty Two Candle Co jar when done burning your candle. These jars make excellent pen holders, makeup brush holders, vases, or succulent pots. Once your candle is finished burning, simply boil water and pour it into the candle jar. The wax will float to the top and can be removed as a disc once cooled. Don't forget to remove wick clip(s) at the bottom as well. Clean any remaining residue and your jar is ready for reuse! As a last resort, all of our jars are recyclable as glass.

How long will it take to receive my order?
All of our candles are hand-poured in small batches, however that doesn't mean you will have to wait long for your luxury candle! We will ensure every order of in-stock items is shipped within 1 to 2 business days.

Do you ship internationally?
At this time we do not ship internationally, however stay tuned as we are always looking to expand!

Do your candles contain any toxins or carcinogens?
Absolutely not - every candle we craft is vegan, toxic-free, phthalate-free, paraben-free, mutagen-free, cruelty-free, and carcinogen-free. Basically you can be certain that all of our products are safe, natural, and ethically sourced!
