A set of 3 mini candles of Tomato, Sage & Rosemary in a custom gift box. These three Candles are our most beloved scents. They are our origin story, and an embodiment of our garden — where a sea of Rosemary, Sage, and Tomato plants tingle your nose and push you along the pathways. We’ve hand-poured them in petite glass vessels so you can light them all at once and create ambiance, gift them, or trial our most iconic scents. A fêtes of light awaits. This Holiday Gift Set comes in an embossed Gift Box, finished with a grosgrain Bow. Inside This Set:Mini Roma Heirloom Tomato CandleThe Tomato is a kiss from Mother Nature and the signature scent of our garden. This is a powerful candle with the unique aroma of freshly crushed Tomato leaves. Mini Climbing Tuscan Rosemary CandleOnce it begins burning, the Rosemary smells like a stimulating feast of camphor and wood. The herbaceous scent warms rooms and spirits with deep and lovely earthiness — like fresh air from an open window. Mini Adriatic Muscatel Sage CandleSacred, spiritual, and wholly transportive. The Sage in this Candle carries with it salt breezes from the Adriatic — and the deep earthiness of the garden. 100% Vegetable WaxCotton WickFully Recyclable Glass60 Hour burn timeHand Poured in Los Angeles Flamingo Estate candles are packaged in boxes with an FSC certification, which means they were made using materials from responsibly managed forests, including some recycled paper products.The soy wax in our candles is non-GMO and grown in the USA.We donate a percentage of every product we sell to Farmer’s Footprint. They are a coalition of farmers, educators, doctors, scientists, and business leaders whose mission is to ban glyphosate, aiming to expose the impacts of chemical farming and offer a path forward through regenerative agricultural practices.How to UseWhen burning your candle for the first time, allow it to burn for 2 to 3 hours (but never more than 4), until the top layer of the wax has completely melted. This will prevent the wax from tunneling around the wick.Ideally, we recommend keeping the wick trimmed to 1/4 inch at all times to prevent the candle from emitting smoke or the wick falling into the wax.After each burn, see that the wick is centered in the wax. This will also ensure that the glass does not overheat. The wick and flame should never be touching the glass.About Flamingo EstateTHE ESTATEA place to bathe, eat, and bask in the garden’s most precious ingredients.In the early 1940s, a determined pair of young renegades arrived in California to realize their vision of an earthly paradise. High atop the hills of Los Angeles, hidden by a lush orchard and dense gardens, the flamingo-pink estate became a secret haven for wild alchemy in the City of Angels.Flamingo Estate is a home and garden. But it’s more than that, too. It’s the story of a lush orchard and pleasure garden on a California hillside overlooking Los Angeles, and the many hands that have helped tend it. It’s a philosophy that champions slow ways and ancient practices. It’s a quest for intimacy — between plants and people, body and spirit, heaven and earth.Flamingo Estate is a reminder that beauty is not so much the penchant of certain people for exceptional things, as it is their refusal to stand for anything less.With the help of our friends and a network of incredible farmers, we grow sage for soap and tomatoes for candles. We harvest salt from the cliffs of Big Sur and press olive oil from very old trees and keep bees for honey. In all of it, we’re invested in pleasure — for ourselves and our clients and friends — because we think it’s a path to radical change and cataclysmic beauty.Things at Flamingo Estate take time and patience, and they’re meant to. There’s dreaming involved, and growing, and trial and error. There are skilled hands of expert purveyors at the helm of every bar of soap, every drop of oil, and there’s wisdom imbued in each product’s story. If something feels expensive here, it’s because these things are rare.If you’re here, it’s because you believe in the power of the human hand, in collaboration with Mother Nature, to make beauty. We’re the ardent dreamers, the fantasists, the wizards in the workshop, and we’re all doing it for the marvels of the natural world.
