Alnwick Brewery Candle

If you are looking for a beeswax candle that is just that touch different then let us introduce you to the Alnwick Brewery candles. These beeswax candles, created in small batches by Askew Candles in Darlington are made from moulds of original beer bottles. The Alnwick Brewery has been making beer of distinction since the 1860's in Alnwick, the capital of Northumbria in the North East of England. And these bottle candles evoke a sense of history of bottle making, when the intricate design was almost as important as the beer they held.

Made in Darlington

Meet the Maker: Askews Candles

Three brothers - Tom, Joe and George Askew - handcraft unique beeswax candles in the stables of their family home in Hurworth, near Darlington. Founded in 2016 when George transformed his candle-making hobby into a family business, Askews Candles creates each piece using custom moulds from antique and vintage British bottles sourced from charity shops, antique dealers and bottle enthusiasts across the country. Using one hundred percent British beeswax with natural wicks, these candles offer exceptional burn times up to one hundred hours, producing a clean, bright golden flame with a subtle honey aroma. The bottle designs - from Victorian poison bottles to Yorkshire brewery bottles - preserve North East heritage and British brewing history in functional form. Beeswax is completely sustainable, and supporting these candles means supporting Britain's vital bee population. Featured in Country Living and Period Living, Askews Candles represent brotherhood, sustainability and the preservation of British industrial heritage.
