We discovered Maison Pechavy on a sourcing trip to Paris and immediately understood why they've captured the attention of the most discerning interiors world. Founded in 2019 in the Dordogne by Carine Pechavy — a tribute to her family's century-old wood trading heritage and to the French art of living — every candle is made by the Ciergerie des Prémontrés, the last candle factory in Provence and holder of the prestigious "Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant" (Living Heritage Company) label. The fine candles are hand-dipped by wax craftsmen using the ancestral "à la plongée" method, where cotton wicks on wooden frames are plunged repeatedly into warm wax and the color pigments scattered by hand into the melted wax — producing candles that are subtler, more alive, and more beautiful than anything a machine can make.
Ten of Maison Pechavy's signature fine candles in a harmoniously assembled palette — each one hand-dipped by artisans at the last candle factory in Provence using an ancestral technique that produces a beautiful conical taper, thinner at the top. The wax is a combination of food-grade paraffin and high-quality vegetable wax — it does not drip, burns slowly, and does not emit smoke.
