Introducing the Half-Pint Candle
All the atmosphere. A little more freedom.
Some candles are made to be seen. Others are made to be used.
Our new Half-Pint Candle was designed to do both—beautifully, practically, and without compromise.
At first glance, it’s a departure from our classic glass jars. A simple steel vessel. A more compact form. But light it, and you’ll find something familiar: the same carefully developed fragrances, the same warm, even glow, and a burn experience that holds its own.
In fact, it may surprise you just how much this little candle can do.
Petals on the Path Half-Pint Candle
Nearly the Same Burn—For Less
One of the first things you’ll notice about the Half-Pint Candle is the price. At roughly $10 less than our 8.5 oz glass candles, it offers exceptional value—without feeling like a “smaller” experience.
Despite its more compact size, the burn time comes remarkably close to our standard jars. It’s the kind of candle you can light freely—without saving it for a “special occasion.” Because sometimes, the moment you’re in is the occasion.
Made in the USA, Start to Finish
Every Half-Pint Candle is made here in the United States—from the wax inside to the steel container itself, down to the labels.
That means greater consistency, more reliable quality, and a supply chain you can feel good about. It’s a quieter detail, but an important one—part of a commitment to thoughtful production at every level.
A Minor Scandal Half-Pint Candle
A Smarter, More Sustainable Vessel
The steel can isn’t just a stylistic choice—it’s a practical one.
Each vessel is made with 25% pre-consumer recycled metal, and when the candle is finished, it’s fully recyclable. Or better yet, reusable.
Use it to hold matches, desk tools, cotton rounds, or small keepsakes. It’s sturdy, lightweight, and designed to stick around long after the last burn.
Designed to Tell the Story
On our Half-Pint Candles, the label does more than identify the scent—it invites you into it.
Each design features either bold, expressive typography or carefully composed imagery, paired with a full fragrance description right on the label. There’s no need to guess what’s inside or search for details—the story is right there in your hands.
Travel-Ready (and Shipping-Friendly)
No glass means no stress.
The Half-Pint Candle is durable, compact, and easy to pack—whether you’re slipping it into a weekend bag or sending it across the country as a gift. No heavy weight. No worrying about breakage. Just fragrance, ready to go wherever it’s needed.
It’s a small shift that makes a big difference—especially during the holidays, or anytime you’re sharing a little piece of your world with someone else.
A Candle for Everyday Ritual
The Half-Pint Candle isn’t meant to replace our glass jars. It’s meant to complement them.
It’s the candle you keep by your bedside. The one you travel with. The one you burn often, generously, without hesitation.
Because fragrance isn’t just about special moments.
It’s about the quiet, everyday ones—the ones that deserve just as much attention.
The Breakwater Half-Pint Candle
For Our Retail Partners
The Half-Pint Candle was designed with the shop floor in mind.
Its durable steel construction eliminates the risk of breakage during shipping and handling, while the paint-can style lid helps prevent customers from opening inventory on the shelf. That means less loss, less mess, and a more controlled in-store experience.
At the same time, the format offers strong appeal to customers. The accessible price point, combined with a burn time that rivals larger candles, makes it an easy add-on purchase and an attractive gift option.
Each candle is also clearly labeled with a full fragrance description, allowing customers to connect with the scent without needing to open it—supporting both storytelling and self-service merchandising.
Compact, lightweight, and easy to display, the Half-Pint Candle is well-suited for everything from curated gift shops to high-traffic retail environments.
