Description

Pure natural beeswax sticks handmade in a small workshop in the village of Cottenham, Cambridgeshire.

Beeswax is one of those wonderfully versatile traditional materials that seems to have an endless list of uses. Whether you're making your own beeswax wraps, restoring furniture, waxing tools, treating threads, or creating crafts, these natural beeswax sticks are a handy thing to keep around.

As they contain nothing but natural beeswax, colour can vary from batch to batch. The shade depends on factors such as the flowers visited by the bees and the natural pollen and propolis present in the wax.
