Take me to it!About us...
We’re Vanessa and Katie. Two sisters sharing one workshop and a passion for luxury candles which simultaneously stimulate and soothe the senses.
We pour our passion for candle-making and crafting the perfect scent into our bespoke range, which is designed to be luxurious in everything but price.
Constantly evolving as we’re inspired by new scents or fresh twists on tried and tested favourites, our carefully curated collection ranges from classic florals through to more unisex minerals. And lots of lovely smells in between.
Having found our core collection of fragrances, we have now expanded our range to include soaps, lotions, diffusers and most recently, room & linen sprays.
We take what we do very seriously but also have a lot of fun with it. Both from creative backgrounds, we can’t resist letting our personalities shine through on social. Find us on Facebook (@rosemaryandridgway) and Instagram (@rosemary_and_ridgway) to see what we mean!
We are very socially aware and use as much recycled and recyclable packing as possible, to minimise our impact on the planet.
So the only question is – which fragrance will you try first?
Happy shopping!

Frequently Asked Questions
So, you have some questions. Hopefully, here, you may find some answers
Could you tell me what wax you use?
Our wax is a blend of hydrogenated Soy, Coconut and other sustainable oils and is 100% plant based. It contains no Beeswax or petroleum derived products. It also has a naturally wonderfully creamy colour.
Yup, it's totally fine. Soy & Coconut wax is all natural so changes in ambient temperature can affect it but will never affect the integrity of the candle itself. This is just the fragrance oil being drawn to the surface. Once you light it up again, the oil will just blend in with the wax again and smell just as amazing as ever!
How do I stop my candle "tunnelling'?
Always let your candle burn until you have achieved a full melt pool across the top of the surface of the candle. This will ensure that when you extinguish it, you're left with a perfectly flat top ready to carry on burning next time!
We recommend burning your candle for at least 3-4 hours each time (70g at least 2 hours).Sometimes I get a black, sooty residue inside the glass after a burn
Can I re-use my candle glass?
