THE CRAFTSMANSHIP RUNS DEEPER THAN YOU COULD Ever IMAGINE


THE CRAFTSMANSHIP RUNS DEEPER THAN YOU COULD EVER IMAGINE

THE

ILLUSTRATIONS

INSPIRED BY MUSES, BROUGHT TO LIFE IN INK

A real muse lies behind every illustration which adorns our candles; an elusive and inspirational woman who has inspired & motivated the creative process.

Lauren works with her fine-nib pen to capture the spirit of these muses in ink. Such drawings are a relentless labour of love, with each one being drafted and tweaked a countless number of times before being finalised.

Lauren's end goal is to always create illustrations which convey unique character. She hopes that through her candles, others will be able to express their own attitude & spirit.

THE

FRAGRANCE

MADE HAND-IN-HAND WITH MASTER PERFUMERS

We strive to produce scents that portray the muse behind the candle, and which allow our customers to express their own unique selves in the form of fragrance.

We work for months to produce fragrance oils that are beautiful, unknowable and full of personality. We source the finest possible ingredients from across the globe, and experiment with a number of formulas in order to produce something truly special.

We hope that you are as delighted with the outcome as we are.

THE HATS

MADE WITH LOVE

(AND SOME VERY NIMBLE FINGERS!)

Every LDC candle comes accessorised with a stylish hat, carefully handmade in our delightful Notting Hill studio. Using the most exquisite trimmings we can possibly find (along with some very nimble fingers) we pick, sew, trim and polish these creations to perfection.

It’s a time consuming process getting these details just so. But of course, we wouldn't have it any other way.

THE

FINE BONE CHINA

HANDMADE IN STOKE-ON-TRENT

Like all of our other fine bone china pieces, our candle jars and hats are handmade in England from the finest materials we could possibly source.

The china is shaped by some of the most talented artisans in England, many of whom have been shaping china for over 50 years. We take great pride in working with these craftsmen & women. Together we thrive on producing wares which are held to the highest standards of craftsmanship & imagination.

Naturally, our fine bone china clay is sustainably sourced and our candles are delicately finished with a hand-painted 22 Carat gold rim.

I love my candles. I bought both The Poet and The Performer. They look great and smell lovely. The scent is really strong too and lasts for ages. The service I received from Lauren was excellent too.

I have already recommend these candles to all my friends and family. Hopefully Lauren will design more and I can add to the collection :-)

Lauren Dickinson Clarke is my absolute newest obsession!

The products are stunning and the quality is absolutely amazing. Being a chef I always look for new innovative plates to get creative on and I can’t wait to get plating on them. Not only the product itself, but also the packaging is just of such high quality!
I will be a returning customer until I have every single item !

When I first saw the Moody Muse Candle Collection, I couldn't get them out of my mind! These must-have pieces are as fabulously scented as they are designed and are a perfect coupling of composition and execution.

I am delighted by their whimsy and charmed by their signature scents. Great for gifting AND selfish indulgence!
