Cup&Candle is a candle manufacturing workshop using 100% soy wax, launched in 2013 by Oana D. Botezatu, a former newspaper journalist.
At Cup&Candle, we handcraft soy wax candles (non-GMO, non-toxic, and eco-friendly) that we pour into #vintage collectible porcelain, as well as into #upcycled hand-cut glass pieces or into locally produced ceramic or porcelain containers in Romania, by craftsmen or small factories.
