the sea goat offers sliding scale pricing on all of our products. when you add an item to your cart, you can choose which price you are able to pay - no means testing, no questions asked. the lower price reflects the cost of materials. the higher price reflects the cost of materials and labor.*

the lower price option is also offered to anyone who self identifies as: a person of the global majority (from Black, Indigenous, Latine/Latinx, Asian and other Communities of Color), LGBTQIA+, disabled/chronically ill, working class and/or low income.

this pricing model is in place to increase the financial accessibility of our products, and as a small act of reparation for members of communities targeted by systemic violence and oppression. it is provided on a basis of trust. we ask that if you are able to pay the higher price, you do so. doing so enables us to continue offering this reparative pricing model and supports our wealth redistribution practice.

*you’ll notice our scented candles are priced much higher than our warm honey pure beeswax candle. this is solely due to the cost of essential oils - which reflects the time, resources, and labor required to grow and process real plant materials. we believe in using only essential oils to scent our candles to make them burnable for anyone with synthetic fragrance sensitivities. we also hope our candles can serve as a way to build relationships with the plant allies whose essences we carefully choose to incorporate into each scent blend.

story coming soon :)

• organic cinnamon bark essential oil, organic clove bud essential oil, organic ginger essential oil, organic nutmeg essential oil, organic black pepper essential oil*

• 100% pure beeswax, from local New England hives

• wooden wick made from american cherry wood

• stainless steel wick clips

• amber glass jar and tin-plate steel lid (both are reusable and recyclable)

*we only use 100% pure essential oils to scent our candles. however, if you have any chemical or scent sensitivities, we recommend sticking with our warm honey candle. it has no added scent, but you’ll still get to enjoy the delicious honey fragrance of pure beeswax.

• 7 oz / 200 g

• 40 hour burn time

all of our candles are hand poured in small batches. because of the hand made nature of our candles, it’s normal to notice small variations between batches. if you notice a whitish film on your candles, this is called “bloom” and is a natural process where the softer oils of the beeswax rise to the surface of the candle overtime (especially in colder temperatures). bloom won’t affect the burning or aroma of the candle - but if you’d like to remove it, just wipe it away with a dry cloth.

for the best burn:

• always trim wick to 1/4 inch before lighting (for wooden wicks, you can do this with small scissors, your fingers, a wick trimmer, or nail clippers)

• make sure wax is clear of debris before burning

• never leave a lit candle unattended, or burn on or near anything flammable

• to prevent tunnelling, allow candle to burn long enough for the entire surface of the wax to melt (about 1-2 hours) before blowing or snuffing it out

• keep away from pets and children

• stop burning candle when there's 1/2 inch of wax left

• do not burn candle for more than 4 hours at a time
