Our Story

You deserve better

We know what you’re thinking… how did two masculine men get into the candle making business?

Well, let us take you through a brief background.

One night, Kevin lit a candle to add a little ambiance to the room. When he pulled the candle away from the wall, he noticed a black soot mark had made its presence all along the side. While most guys would just move the candle away from the wall (duh), Kevin had two thoughts, one--oh crap, my wall and two--this can’t be healthy (and it wasn’t). Thus, Wax and Wick was born.

In the beginning, Wax and Wick was just the two of us: producing the best 100% soy-based candle, pouring packing orders, and shipping 'em out by hand. A few sleepless nights, 3 plus years, and a few employees later, we're still growing.

But our goal hasn’t changed— to combine minimalist aesthetics with 100% soy wax and natural wood wicks for a clean burning masculine candle for men.

Cheers,
Kevin & Garrett
