A Candle for Life · Refills for Your Ceramic
Sophisticated elegance and fresh flowers in her hair.
A sun-kissed terrace overlooking rolling hills and olive groves.
Leather-bound books and the flicker of warming candlelight.
Snow-topped slopes, crackling log fires and the warmth of a cosy ski lodge.
Ancient woodland, dappled sunlight and the rich scent of oak.
The cultured charm of an impeccably groomed gentleman.
Romantic autumn days and the sweet scent of roses on the breeze.
Freshly cut stems, herbal blends and carefully selected botanicals.
Exotic flowers, birdsong and warm air rising to the canopy above.
A sultry and elegant grace, and the mysteries behind her eyes.
A salty breeze, crashing waves and beautiful shells from far away.
Sandy beaches, rum cocktails and warming sunshine.
Cobbled paths, morning dew and wild flowers on the breeze.
An English rose garden at the height of a lazy summer afternoon.
A hidden walled garden where the air hangs heavy with fragrance.
For poets, romantics and dreamers. The Land of Nod awaits.
How the Refills work
So you never have to throw away a ceramic you love.
Watch the Refill in action
A hand-poured repour, twice a year, for the ceramic you couldn't let go.
The 3-wick can't be refilled at home. A drop-in refill won't hold at that size, so the vessel needs to be hand-poured in our Cheshire studio. Twice a year we open the books: post us your empty vessel, choose any fragrance from our range, and we'll repour it and send it back. Saves £60 versus buying a new ceramic, and keeps the one you already love.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our Candle refills
Will any refill fit my ceramic candle?
Every one of our candle refills fits every 1-wick Chase and Wonder ceramic candle. Whether your vessel is The Library, The Flower Lady, or any other design in our range, the refills are built to drop in perfectly.
If you own a 3-wick ceramic, please see our 3-Wick Refill Service.
How do I refill my candle?
It takes two minutes. Rinse your empty ceramic vessel in warm soapy water to remove any leftover wax, then dry it thoroughly. Unwrap the new candle refill, drop it into the clean vessel, and light.
For best results, let your first burn run for one to two hours, or until the wax has melted all the way to the edges of the vessel.
Can I put a different fragrance in my ceramic?
Absolutely. This is one of the best parts of the refill system. You can reorder the same scent, or try something new every time. Since you've cleaned the vessel before dropping in the new refill, there's no lingering trace of the previous fragrance.
One ceramic, your choice of fragrances. Not sure which to try next? The Fragrance Sample Pack is the easy way in.
How long does a refill burn for?
Each 280g refill burns for up to 80 hours, hand-poured in Britain using our vegan-friendly soy wax blend with a cotton wick. Fits perfectly inside any 1-wick Chase and Wonder ceramic.
Can I refill my 3-wick candle myself?
No. 3-wick refills can't be dropped in at home; the vessel needs to be hand-poured by us.
Twice a year, in March and September, we open our Cheshire workshop for our 3-Wick Refill Service. Post us your empty vessel, choose any fragrance from our range, and we'll repour it by hand and send it back. £80 per repour, with free return postage.
What if my fragrance has been discontinued?
We keep fragrances in our range as long as we can, but very occasionally a scent is retired. If the refill you want isn't available, get in touch and we'll help you pick the closest alternative from our current range, or point you to the Fragrance Sample Pack so you can find a new favourite.
Refill Your Ceramic Candle, Keep the Vessel Forever
Every Chase and Wonder ceramic candle is built for a second life, and a third, and a fourth. When the wax burns down, you keep the hand-decorated fine china vessel, made in Stoke-on-Trent with 22ct gold detailing, and drop in a fresh candle refill. Same clean burn, no packaging waste, and a fraction of the cost of a new candle.
Every refill is hand-poured in Britain using our vegan-friendly soy wax blend and a cotton wick. Each one weighs 280g, burns for up to 80 hours, and fits perfectly inside any 1-wick Chase and Wonder ceramic you already own.
Refilling takes two minutes. Rinse the empty vessel in warm soapy water to remove any leftover wax, dry it thoroughly, unwrap the new refill, drop it in, and light. Your ceramic candle is ready to scent your home again.
