Birmingham's Hand-Poured Candles, Shipped from Main Street
From our bar inside the historic Hotel Gunter to Birmingham, AL doorsteps — every candle hand-poured in Frostburg, Maryland.
Birmingham was built on making things — iron first, at Sloss Furnaces, under the gaze of Vulcan up on Red Mountain — and it never lost the habit. Neither have we: our soy-blend candles are poured by hand in Frostburg, Maryland, and USPS delivers them to Birmingham homes in three to five days. The craftsman bungalows of Highland Park and the Tudors of Forest Park were built for the long Alabama evening; Avondale and Crestwood keep their porch lights on late. Spring here stretches out for months, summer arrives with afternoon thunderheads rolling over the ridge, and fall takes its time leaving. Houses with that much porch season need something worth burning in the off-hours. Ours are poured at our candle bar inside the historic Hotel Gunter — six house scents at $17 each, 668 items in the wider collection — and every order is boxed on Main Street in Frostburg before the Postal Service carries it down the spine of the Appalachians to the Magic City.
The pours we'd pick for Birmingham
Pour House · House Signature — Bourbon, oak, and smoke in the city that smelted iron under Vulcan's watch — a foundry town deserves a candle with smoke in it.
Caramel — Burnt sugar and vanilla for a city that takes its Sunday dinners seriously; it burns like dessert in Forest Park.
Cashmere — Musk and amber for Highland Park's long, mild evenings — warm without arguing with the Alabama heat.
Any single pour is $17. Take the whole flight — three pours for $51, or all six for $102 — or wander the 668-item collection of candles, wax melts, and gifts in the shop. For the Birmingham friend who chooses their own scents, gift cards arrive by email within the hour.
Birmingham asks, we answer
How long does shipping to Birmingham take?
Three to five days. Orders ship USPS from Frostburg, Maryland, and Birmingham falls in our middle-of-the-country window rather than the two-to-three-day East Coast run.
Where are the candles poured?
By hand, in Frostburg, Maryland — at our candle bar inside the historic Hotel Gunter, 11 W. Main St. Soy-blend wax, small pours, then boxed on Main Street for the trip south.
Can I send a gift card to someone in Birmingham?
You can. Gift cards come in $25, $50, and $100 at pourhousecandlebar.com, and they spend on anything in the collection — all 668 items of it, candles included.
