Rapeseed wax beads | refill set for durable refillable designer candle

The 'Refillable Candle' series is a unique collection of candle holders, designed to make your own candles with rapeseed wax. The objects were designed by different designers, in honor of the 15th anniversary of Vij5. The basic idea is that you buy a candle holder once, which you can then keep using for a longer period of time by refilling it each time with rapeseed wax, a sustainable alternative to paraffin.

Here you can buy a refill set for the Refillable Candles separately. Alternatively, a set of rapeseed wax tea lights is also available.

Refill kit:
- Approximately 600 grams of rapeseed wax granules (Brassica Campestris (Rapeseed) Seed Oil, Cera alba**, Palm Stearic Acid) **This product contains beeswax.
- 5 wicks
- wick holder to properly position the wick in the center of the candle
- usage instructions

Description

A "refillable candle" is a mold/container that can be easily (re)filled with liquid candle wax to form a candle.

In 2021 Vij5 existed 15 years, therefore prior to DDW we invited all the designers we work with under the Vij5 collection to create a "refillable candle" Design. An overview of their unique Design was on display in the Vij5 showroom during DDW 2021. The designers were given carte blanche, allowing their different handwriting to stand out in the final product. As a result, the exhibition showed a wide range of personal interpretations and at the same time formed an interesting unity, just like the Vij5 collection.

Rapeseed wax

For this project, we are working with rapeseed wax: a local, safe and easy-to-process product as a sustainable alternative to paraffin candles. Another advantage of rapeseed wax is that it has a relatively low melting point, which makes the container easy to clean with hot water and soap or in the dishwasher (if the material of the container allows it).
