Our story

Welcome to Jeso Candles, the place where every candle has a story, and ours just happens to start at home.

We’re Phil and Anna, a father and daughter team tucked away in the Warwickshire countryside. For nearly three decades, our house has been a bit of a creative chaos zone, always full of half-finished projects, new ideas, and gifts we insisted on making ourselves.

What began as a weekend experiment (picture us melting wax in the kitchen and hoping for the best) quickly became something we genuinely loved. Candle-making wasn’t just a craft. It was a way to capture moments, memories, and messages in something small but meaningful.

Everything you’ll find at Jeso Candles is hand-poured by us with proper care, plenty of personality, and a whole lot of heart. We make candles that feel like gifts with intention behind them, thoughtful, personal, and full of character. Whether you’re treating someone you love or giving yourself a little “go on then” moment, we want our candles to make you feel seen.

We also care about doing things properly, for you, for us, and for the planet. Our candles are made with eco-friendly soy wax and poured into our handmade jesmonite vessels. They are durable, beautiful, and refillable, so you can enjoy your favourite scents without adding to the bin.

From our family to yours, thank you for supporting our small business. It really does mean the world.
