HANDMADE ARTISAN REFILLABLE CANDLES
Magwick™ Inside. Only Available Here.
Refillable Candles, Crafted for Every Home
At Vessel & Essence, we design refillable candle jars and refill candles that unite sustainability with style.
Choose from two types of vessels: Our exclusive handmade ceramic range, crafted in the UK and fitted with the innovative Magwick™ system for effortless refilling, or our elegant Italian glass collection, a more affordable option designed for easy candle refills without the magnetic base. Both are made to be reused by using our refill candles.
Our refill candles are handmade by us using natural vegan wax and pure essential oils for a cleaner, longer-lasting burn.

Refill Candles - It's A Way Of Life
Every decision we take puts sustainability at the fore. From the power supplier we choose for our workshop, to the packaging we use.
Vessel and Essence naturally evolved from the ethos of, "I Love Zero", our Award Winning Zero Waste Shop.
Our eco-conscious customers often asked us if we could refill the candles we made. With necessity being the mother of invention we set out to solve this problem and invented our patented Magwick™ wick retention system. We believe it will revolutionise the refill candle market.
Did you know? Around 35 million candle jars or containers disposed of in the UK every year. Help us reduce this figure.
Thank you for helping us on our journey.

Less noise please
We choose not to sell our refill candles through online market places like Amazon, Etsy or Ebay. For us, the experience of fragrance is personal. It's about care, craft and connection, not about being another product lost on a crowded shelf.
Buy online direct or visit us in our little shop. Learn what we do.

Quick FAQs
Our Most Popular Questions
How do your Magwick refillable candles work?
How do your Magwick refillable candles work?
Our refillable candles use the Magwick™ system — a simple magnetic base that keeps the wick centred without glue dots or residue. When the candle’s finished, lift it out, wipe clean and drop in a new refill. No mess, no waste.
Are all your candles vegan and cruelty-free?
Are all your candles vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes. Every candle we make is 100% vegan and cruelty-free, hand-poured using natural plant waxes and pure essential oils. No paraffin, no animal-derived ingredients — just clean, sustainable fragrance.
Can I use your refills in any candle jar?
Can I use your refills in any candle jar?
Our refills are designed for Vessel & Essence jars to ensure a perfect fit and clean burn. The Magwick™ base works exclusively with our ceramic vessels, but our Italian glass range offers a universal refill fit for simple reuse.
