Candle Jars

Premium glass candle jars from UK manufacturer. Stock and bespoke vessels for luxury candle brands. Full decoration services, matching lids, and low MOQs from 500 units.

Glass Candle Jars

Our stock candle jar collection encompasses the most sought-after styles in the luxury candle market. Classic tumbler shapes deliver a clean, contemporary aesthetic, while apothecary jars suit heritage and artisanal brand positioning. Geodesic and faceted designs add visual interest, and straight-sided vessels provide a modern, minimal canvas for branding.

Available in sizes from 120ml to 500ml, our jars are offered in clear, frosted, and coloured glass options. Each jar is manufactured with consistent wall thickness for safe candle burning and is compatible with standard wick holders and lid fittings. Stock jars dispatch within 3-5 working days from our UK warehouse, with minimum order quantities from 500 units.

Luxury Candle Containers

For premium and niche candle brands, a bespoke container is a powerful differentiator. Our custom design service creates unique jar shapes that reflect your brand story and stand apart in a competitive market. Heavy-base designs convey substance and luxury, while hand-blown look-alike moulds deliver artisanal character at production-scale pricing.

The bespoke process begins with concept development and 3D visualisation, allowing you to refine proportions, profiles, and details before committing to tooling. Moulds remain exclusive to your brand, ensuring your candle jar cannot be replicated. Our design team understands the technical considerations specific to candle vessels, including thermal resistance, wick centring, and wax adhesion.

Candle Jar Decoration & Branding

Transform your candle jars with decoration that reinforces your brand identity. Screen printing applies logos and text directly to the glass in up to four colours, while metallic decals in gold, silver, and rose gold deliver a luxury finish. Frosting creates a soft, tactile surface that diffuses the candlelight beautifully.

Interior coating is a popular technique for candle jars, creating a coloured effect visible through the glass that enhances the ambiance when the candle is lit. Exterior spray coating in any Pantone colour is also available, along with labels for brands preferring a more traditional approach to branding.

All decoration is carried out with precise colour matching to ensure consistency across every batch. Our team can advise on the most effective decoration techniques for your jar shape and brand positioning.

Sizes & Capacities

Candle jar sizes are typically categorised by their suitability for single-wick or multi-wick configurations. Single-wick jars (120ml to 200ml) are the most versatile, suitable for bedrooms, bathrooms, and as gifts. These smaller formats offer an accessible entry price and are ideal for discovery or seasonal collections.

Multi-wick jars (300ml to 500ml and above) create a more dramatic flame display and faster scent throw, making them suited to living rooms, open-plan spaces, and commercial environments. The larger wax capacity delivers extended burn times, with premium three-wick candles often exceeding 60 hours.

Mini and travel candles (50ml to 90ml) have grown significantly in popularity as affordable gifts, discovery products, and hotel amenities. These compact formats allow consumers to experience a brand at a lower commitment point while generating strong margins per unit.

Lid Options

A well-chosen lid elevates a candle jar from a functional vessel to a desirable home accessory. Glass lids offer a clean, modern look and allow the wax colour or surface design to remain visible. Wooden lids, sourced from FSC-certified suppliers, deliver a natural, artisanal aesthetic and are available in a range of timber finishes and stain colours.

Metal lids in brass, copper, and matte black aluminium suit contemporary and industrial brand positioning. Ceramic lids provide a premium tactile quality and can be glazed in custom colours. All lid options can be further personalised with laser engraving, debossing, or printed branding.
