Beeswax candles are made from beeswax produced naturally by honey bees in their nests as they pollinate the world’s flowers. Beeswax candles date back as far as the Han Dynasty in China and were used throughout the Earth; even in the American colonies by such figures as John Adams and Benjamin Franklin. They are a form of light that is symbiotic with the world. All-natural beeswax is still used to this day in candle making for many reasons. It has greater longevity than its contemporary alternatives and is completely green. It burns brighter and modern science has discovered that beeswax actually produces negative ions that bind to toxins. This revelation confirms what many ancient cultures knew already, beeswax candles help purify the air around them. They help to eliminate dust particles and other airborne contaminants to make the air safer to breathe. In a time of pandemics and chemical-based cleaning agents, with most of the world trapped in their homes, this fact couldn’t be more important. What better way to get back to your roots, clean your house naturally with a pleasant scent, and support a greener world. Come join us at Benjamin’s, and bee the light.
