Concrete Candle Jars: Myth vs Facts

Concrete Candle Jars: Myths vs. Facts

Concrete vessels add a modern, cozy touch to your space, but we’ve heard a few myths floating around. Let’s set the record straight:

myth: glass candles smell stronger than concrete ones.
fact: the strength of your candle’s scent comes from the wax and fragrance oils, not the vessel. glass doesn’t "throw" scent differently than concrete does. it’s all about the formula.

myth: concrete cracks too easily.
fact: any material can crack under extreme conditions, even glass. our vessels go through rigorous testing to make sure they’re strong and safe for everyday use, over and over again!

myth: wax can seep into concrete.
fact: raw concrete is porous, but our jars are sealed inside and out with a safe, VOC-free sealant. that means no messy leaks. bonus, your jar stays clean and ready to refill.

the takeaway:
concrete vessels aren’t just beautiful, they’re practical too. with the right testing and sealing (like ours), they’re durable, reusable, and made to last—so you can enjoy your candle worry-free.
