Why did we decide to create handcrafted soy candles in Spain? Discover the origin of our ritual and how we care for your home and the planet.
There are moments that deserve to be paused. The rustle of a page turning, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, or that instant at the end of the day when you finally decide to light a candle and breathe. Velavela was born in our workshop in Spain precisely from that quest: the need to find a balance between minimalist design and the warmth of a home that knows how to live without haste.
The origin of a conscious ritual
Our story didn't begin with large machines, but with a small experiment and a clear question: Is it possible to create a candle that takes care of us as much as it decorates our space?
Conventional candles often contain ingredients we'd rather not breathe. That's why at Velavela, we decided to do things differently. We moved away from industrial production to embrace local craftsmanship . Each of our candles is hand-poured, individually, with the patience that only artisanal work allows.
Real sustainability: From the earth to your home
For us, sustainability isn't a trend, it's our foundation. We want you to feel good about every flame you light. That's why our values are based on three fundamental pillars:
• Locally sourced soy wax: We use vegetable wax grown here in Spain. By supporting the local economy, we not only reduce our carbon footprint, but also support local agriculture.
• 100% Clean and Vegan Formula: Your health comes first. Our candles are free of parabens, phthalates, and synthetic dyes. Only pure wax and premium fragrances for a clean, non-toxic burn.
• Designed to last: Our metal tins are not single-use. They are designed to blend seamlessly into your Nordic or minimalist decor and, once the candle is burned out, transform into an organizational object, thus closing a circle of responsible consumption .
A sensory haven for "Slow Living"
We believe that true luxury is the time we dedicate to ourselves. We design our signature candles as a sensory refuge; an invitation to practice slow living and transform your home into a sanctuary of mindful calm .
From the sweetness of our Enchanted Apple to the serenity of Lavender, each aroma is designed to accompany your moments of reading, meditation or rest, bringing light without saturating the senses.
Thank you for allowing Velavela into your home and for valuing design made with hands and heart. Together, we are illuminating homes in a more ethical, healthy, and beautiful way.
