Fair Candles

 

The latest addition to the Fair Trees® product range is Fair Candles®. Beautiful, organic Christmas tree candles which are Fair Trade approved, just like all other Fair Trees products.


The hand-made Christmas tree candles are made from beeswax gathered by Georgian beekeepers. Fair Trees has engaged four Georgians, who use traditional equipment such as zinc tubs, flames and hand-operated drums to produce the honey-scented candles under fair conditions of employment.


The candles are sold in Denmark in neatly-wrapped bundles of twenty. These attractive candles, produced without the use of chemicals and whose scent is clean and natural, contribute in a healthy way to the cosiness of Christmas time in the home.


Fair Candles can be found in Fair Trade shops around the country, or they can be ordered here. A bundle costs 98 Danish kroner, of which 5 kroner are donated to Georgian development projects.

 

Fair Candles


“I am thrilled that Fair Trade in the form of Fair Trees has reached out to the poor cone pickers in Georgia. Fair Trade is fabulous and it helps a lot of people in outlying regions of Georgia to enjoy a better quality of life.”
