Newark's Hand-Poured Candles, Shipped from Main Street
From our bar inside the historic Hotel Gunter to Newark, NJ doorsteps — every candle hand-poured in Frostburg, Maryland.
Newark rewards a patient nose, and patience is most of our trade: soy-blend candles poured by hand in Frostburg, Maryland, boxed on Main Street, and carried to Newark doors by USPS in two to three days. The Ironbound smells like char-grilled everything and warm Portuguese bread the moment you step onto Ferry Street; Branch Brook Park turns pink every April under one of the largest stands of cherry trees in the country; Forest Hill keeps its turn-of-the-century houses shaded and quiet. Brick City earns the nickname — summer heat radiates off the rowhouses well past dark, and winter light comes in low and hard over the Passaic. Homes here work for a living: three-family walk-ups, prewar apartments, new towers rising around Military Park. A good candle settles a room like that. Ours are $17 apiece, soy blend, hand-poured one at a time. Consider it poured.
What we'd pour for Newark
Champagne — Pear and white blossom is the closest match in the house to Branch Brook Park in cherry-blossom April — the two weeks Newark turns pink and everyone pretends they knew about it all along.
Caramel — Burnt sugar and vanilla, for anyone who has left the Ironbound with a box of pastries and been surprised by how quickly it emptied on the ride home.
Pour House · House Signature — Bourbon, oak, and smoke suits Brick City's older rooms — a Forest Hill parlor, a prewar apartment with radiators that mean it.
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 Newark friend who chooses their own scents, gift cards arrive by email within the hour.
