MADE IN MOROCCO
Beldi Glass Candles
Sustainably-made with recycled materials and filled with our hand-poured candles, this collaboration celebrates the beauty in the handmade.
Celebrating the art of handmade
If you’ve ever been to Morocco, you know firsthand the prevalence of artists in the community. The warming landscapes and monumental sights of Marrakesh are matched by its bustling artisan district boasting ancient tradition and craftsmanship at every corner. Showcasing their skill and expertise, these local makers create charming handcrafted pieces to be cherished for years to come.
“Working with our friends at Kessy Beldi, this collection marries two things we love — handmade and recycled.”

A storied Moroccan tradition, rooted incare and craftsmanship
HANDMADE FROM START TO FINISH
Beldi glass is a Moroccan tradition. Since the introduction of the iconic shape in the 1940s, it has been the customary tea glass for local families. Founded in 2014 with a true passion for the continuance of traditional processes, the Kessy Beldi brand uses recycled materials—cola, wine and beer bottles—to craft their artisanal mouth-blown pieces.
Working with our friend, Bouchaib, the founder of Kessy Beldi, we have married their recognizable raised ridge glassware with our hand-poured candles, scented with fragrances reminiscent of our Moroccan travels. Once the candle is gone, keep the glass to use as everyday tableware for a bit of Marrakesh in your own home.

After meeting Bouchaib on our most recent visit to Morroco, he is not only a friend, but an inspiration for sustainability in our everyday lives. His talented team of glassblowers design and produce recycled glass pieces that are sold all over the world, and we are proud to share in this rich, artisanal heritage.
