Our Story
Ember & Oak started at a kitchen table in Travelers Rest — one candle at a time. What began as a hobby for my own home turned into something bigger when friends kept asking "where did you get that candle?"
Every candle is hand-poured in small batches using 100% soy wax and cotton wicks. Every soap is cold-processed with ingredients I can pronounce. Nothing mass-produced. Nothing rushed.
You'll find us at farmers markets across the Upstate on weekends, and right here online the rest of the time. We ship everywhere in the US — free over $50.
