HAVN

HAVN /havn/, [hɑʊ̯ˀn]

(origin: Old Norse)

A sanctuary found in the gentle glow of home, a quiet space where comfort resides and the soul finds its rest. Harbour. Haven.

  • For our HAVN candles we chose Crackling Booster Wood Wicks because they deliver an unparalleled sensory experience. These wicks offer a unique, cozy crackle…like a miniature fireplace, and are engineered for an extremely clean, consistent burn.

    This combination ensures optimal fragrance throw and a beautiful, distinctive flame, making your HAVN candle a truly special addition to your home.

    We love wood wicks because they are:

    • A natural material: Unlike some conventional wicks that might have metal cores (though lead is largely phased out, zinc cores are still common), wood wicks are made from 100% natural wood.

    • Sustainably Sourced: We use Luminetique wicks that are typically made from FSC-certified wood. This means the wood comes from forests managed in an environmentally responsible and socially beneficial way.

    • Reduced Soot: While all candles produce some soot, wood wicks, when trimmed properly, are known for a relatively clean burn, often producing less soot than some cotton wicks. The "booster" design helps maintain a consistent flame, further aiding in cleaner combustion.

    • Non-Toxic: They don't release harmful chemicals when burned, contributing to better indoor air quality compared to materials with synthetic additives.

  • A candle jar (vessel) is just as important as the wax, and wick. That’s why we chose this gorgeous, glass vessel for all of our HAVN candles.

    They are crafted from thick, high quality glass with a heavy bottom that feels substantial in your hand. We picked them specifically because they are built to last.

    When your candle is finished, this vessel is easy to clean and perfect to reuse. It transitions instantly from a candle vessel to a stylish holder for pens, makeup brushes, or succulents. It’s not just packaging, it’s a useful piece for your home.

  • We use a premium coconut soy blend selected for its exceptional, creamy texture and performance.

    Coconut wax is widely considered the "champagne" of waxes. It provides a gorgeous, creamy white finish and burns slower than any other wax, meaning your candle lasts significantly longer. It also offers the cleanest burn on the market, producing zero soot and keeping the air in your home pure.

    We love soy because it is 100% plant-based, biodegradable, and renewable,

    By blending these two, we get the best of both worlds.

    A slow, soot-free burn of coconut and the durability and eco-friendliness of soy. It creates a candle that feels rich, burns clean, and respects the environment.

  • Our scent focus is on the subtle, natural feel that complements your space, never overpowering it. We select nature-inspired scents, and blend them at a low fragrance load for a genuinely lightly scented experience.

    We commit to clean quality

    All fragrances are paraben and phthalate-free.

    And for those seeking purity, our ESSENCE line features exclusive blends created by our in-house aromatherapist using 100% pure essential oils.

    For the ultimate minimalist experience, the HAVN and Stone + Flame collections are always available completely unscented, providing warm, beautiful light without any fragrance at all.

  • At the heart of everything we do is a focus on simplicity, quality, and deep intention, a philosophy we apply not just to our business, but to our own homes.

    We believe in quality over quantity and consciously choose to create enduring pieces over quick trends.

    Our goal is simple: to create objects that support your mindful routines and rituals, bringing warmth, light, and a sense of calm into your space, just as the simple candle has done for millennia. Every piece we share has been meticulously considered and takes time to bring to you.
