Let me get this straight. You’ve spent years conducting research, have been published in numerous scholarly journals, wined, dined, opined and you still haven’t reached tenure? Phew! Sounds like you’ve tried everything but a prayer candle – which wouldn’t be such a bad idea at this point, am I right? Try lighting this candle as a last-ditch effort. If that doesn’t work, rinse with boiling water, fill with scotch and toast to another year as associate professor.

Light the candle and enjoy its warm glow. Afterwards, rinse with boiling water and you have yourself a whiskey glass! Each glass features an elegant design evoking exploration in your devoted field. They are hand-poured with a natural, pure burning blend of coconut, soy and beeswax and ignitable by wooden wick. 100% USA made & dishwasher safe.
Since these candles are poured by hand, some imperfections are natural and are part of the character of each unique piece. See our blog for more information.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Because our candles are made with natural wax, they are inclined to melt in transit when the weather is warm. In order to ensure you get a candle, not a box of melted wax, we only ship candles during cooler months.

Great tape
This was an impulse purchase and I don’t ever have high expectations for Washi, but this is high quality stuff.
As a paleo science geek I love all the archeology/paleo items! You can't find these anywhere else.

Love these
I'm a casual nerd and love geology. These pillows are a great nod to my rock obsession without being overly obvious. They just feel like abstract patterns. But they really fit the vibe of my apartment, match the color scheme I am going for, and are nicely well-made. I go for all cotton or plant-based materials if I am able and these being cotton sealed the deal for me. I love them. They're also the perfect size for throw pillows. Not too small, not overly large. I love them (I got two)!
