Autumn Equinox Persimmon & Cinnamon Soy Candle — 7oz Hand-Poured

The one day of the year when everything is perfectly balanced.

Autumn Equinox (Qiufen) is the moment when day and night stand exactly equal — the ancient Chinese astronomers' moment of cosmic calibration. Persimmons hang heavy on bare branches like orange lanterns. The earth exhales. Everything is where it should be.

SCENT PROFILE
Top: Aged tangerine peel — earthy, complex, ancient
Heart: Persimmon + cinnamon — honeyed, wine-like sweetness with warm edges
Base: Amber — deep, resinous, grounded

ABOUT THIS SOLAR TERM
Qiufen is the pivot of the season. After this day, darkness begins to outlast the light. It's a scent of harvest and of turning inward — drying fruit, woodsmoke, the first stews of the year.

DETAILS

• 200g / 7oz — approximately 45 hours of burn time
• 80% soy + 20% coconut wax blend
• IFRA-certified fragrance oil
• Lead-free cotton wick
• Hand-poured in small batches

THE VESSEL
Deep amber wax in a rustic, rust-red terracotta cup with a raw, unglazed clay texture. The terracotta has a grain you can feel — the weight and warmth of the earth itself.

WHY SOY + COCONUT?
Our 80/20 soy-coconut wax blend burns up to 50% longer than paraffin and produces no harmful soot. Coconut wax helps the scent throw farther, melt more evenly, and finish with a smooth, creamy top. Both waxes are plant-based and biodegradable — no paraffin, no petroleum.

SAFETY
Burn within sight. Keep away from flammable objects, children, and pets. Trim wick to 5mm before each burn. Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time.
