Tell us the room

If you cannot pick between the smoke and the green, describe where the candle is going and we will write back with one name and why.

However you would like the note in the box addressed.
We reply from shop@errisbegcandlehouse.ie — check the spam folder on day two.
Pick the nearest one — it decides which of us sees it first.
Square metres and anything odd about it. A draught changes the answer more than the floor area does.
Thirty words is plenty. Say the date if there is one.
A taper burning on the counter with the window lights out of focus behind it

Asked at the door

Can I bring an empty glass to be refilled

Yes, any Thursday to Sunday between eleven and five. €14 for 220 g, €19 for 420 g, done at the counter in about ten minutes. Bring it washed and dry or it goes in the queue for the next visit.

How quickly do you answer an email

Same day Thursday to Sunday. Monday to Wednesday are pour days and the inbox is read once in the evening, so a question asked on Tuesday morning is answered on Tuesday night.

What do you need for a wholesale quote

The scents and quantities, the date you need them on the shelf, and whether you want a plain label. Minimum twelve units, six weeks of notice, and the quote comes back within two working days.

My parcel has not arrived

Give it six working days from the Thursday it left, then send us the order number. We re-post at our cost on day seven rather than opening a claim and asking you to wait on it.

Do you run candle-making classes

No. There is one bench and it is in use three days a week. You are welcome to stand in the doorway on a Thursday morning and watch the run being packed, and we will answer anything while we work.

Or just pick one and light it

Twelve candles, ten of them in stock this morning, from €29. The shelf page says exactly what is behind the counter.
