OUR STORY

Welcome to the world of Elinor Sophia

Hello, I'm Katherine - I founded Elinor Sophia in 2018 after discovering that the candles that I loved were made with toxic ingredients. I knew there had to be a better way, so I went through many years of research and development to formulate candles with clean ingredients.

I wanted to create candles that care for you and your moments of self-care. Candles that are made with clean and sustainable ingredients that help you to take a moment out of your busy life and relax with peace of mind that these are real luxury.

I hope you love them as much as I have loved creating them for you,

Ingredients & Sustainability

WAX

Many candles on the market are made from Paraffin Wax, which is toxic. Our candles are made from 100% Soy, Rapeseed and Beeswax - making them clean, sustainable, renewable, better for you and the environment.

WICKS

Even today some candles still have lead within their wicks. Ours NEVER have lead within them and are made from paper and cotton. We hand-dip each wick individually in our blend of 100% natural wax.

FRAGRANCES

We use fine fragrance oils within our products, all of our fragrances are paraben-free. Our diffuser base oil is made from Soy, making it non-toxic, renewable and sustainable.

PACKAGING

Our packaging is made from FSC Certified materials. All of our packaging is recyclable or made from recycled materials. We handcraft all of our packaging here at our studio in the Cotswolds.

Artisan Manufacturing Techniques

All of our products are hand-made at our studio in the Cotswolds using artisan manufacturing techniques.

HAND-POURED

All of our candles and diffusers are hand-poured and blended by our artisans here at our studio in the Cotswolds.

HAND-DIPPED WICKS

Our wicks are individually hand-dipped into our blend of 100% natural wax. So they are 100% Paraffin-free and Lead-free.

HAND-ILLUSTRATED DESIGNS

The illustrations on our packaging are hand-illustrated by our founder, Katherine here at our studio in the Cotswolds.

HAND-MADE PACKAGING

All of our boxes are designed and hand-made here at our studio. Each one is individually crafted for you.
