Ember & Oak · Portland, Oregon

A quiet studio, a steady pour, and a slow burn worth keeping.

In a sunlit Portland studio, we hand-pour soy candles in small batches, blending natural fragrances with a patient, tactile rhythm. Every vessel is finished by hand, labeled with care, and made to bring a soft glow to everyday rituals.

Small-batch craft

Slow-melt soy wax, clean-burning wicks, and time-honored pours.

Natural scent notes

Subtle woods, resins, and botanicals inspired by the Pacific Northwest.
