Description
Each KeepsakeĀ® Candle is hand-made to our exacting specifications. The molds for our candles are taken from antique glassware dating from 1820 to around 1940. Specially formulated heat-resistant Oklahoma paraffin wax is poured into the mold and rotated by hand to form a wax shell. The shell is then filled with softer, richly scented wax. All in all the process takes nearly two days to complete. When the candle is lit, the scented inner wax burns slowly to the bottom releasing its aromatic fragrance. Light glows softly through the colored, patterned exterior, and the shell remains to be refilled and enjoyed over and over again.
We take pride in our candles and are confident that you will enjoy them as much as we do. Stock up for yourself or buy them for a friend! A KeepsakeĀ® Candle is sure to be a treasured gift. Enjoy our store!
Our Country Store located within the factory boasts a large selection of KeepsakeĀ® Candles for every occasion, plus unique accessories, gifts, Oklahoma-made gourmet foods, and over 30 different lines of decorative and basic candles--all creatively displayed on beautiful antiques.
We are constantly changing the products displayed and decor of our shop creating a charming and magical place that reflects the different seasons or the mood of an approaching holiday. So if you visited us in the spring you will want to come back in the fall. Our candles always make the perfect gift.
If you're a bargain hunter, don't miss our seconds. Our candles are hand-made, so a few are bound to have some imperfections, but that will not affect their burning quality or the wonderful fragrance they emit.
