Artwork Meaning

The artwork represents the variety of native flora on Country. These flowers have been used by Aboriginal people for thousands of years and are much loved, respected and important resources. Many are used for food, medicine, glues, dyes, perfumes and in sacred ceremonies. Many are totem plants, such as the wattle and waratah, which signify seasonal events such as whales arriving on the coast and certain ceremonial times. The variety of blossoms are used as a source of nectar by soaking the flowers in water to create a sweet drink. The leaves also produce oils, which is used for healing purposes and used in cleansing smoking ceremonies. Sacred smoking ceremonies have been passed down for thousands of generations and is one of the oldest ceremonies in the world that is still being practiced today.

Candle Care

To ensure the longevity and a quality burn of your candle, please follow our top 3 tips:

Tip 1: When lighting for the first time, burn for a minimum of 2 hours or until the wax melts across the entire surface of the jar. This prevents tunnelling and creates an even burn.

Tip 2: DO NOT burn your candle for longer than 4 hours at one time. This can damage the wick and cause an undesirable burn.

Tip 3: Before each burn, trim wick to 5mm to promote an even burn, steady flame and limit mushrooming of the wick.
