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.
The same ten hand-dipped fine candles from the last candle factory in Provence, presented in Maison Pechavy's signature gift box alongside a box of long matches — with matchheads colour-coordinated to the box itself, because no detail is too small. The perfect gift, and the most elegant way to light a dinner table.
