Light a candle. Stand on the shore.
Ember & Fen hand-pours small-batch soy candles in Portland, Maine, each scent drawn from the cold, salted edge of the North Atlantic coast. Light one and let the shoreline come indoors.
Move your cursor or drag a finger — the flame follows.
Scents with a shoreline in them.
Our scents are written from the North Atlantic coast. Tidepool Cedar, Smoked Driftwood and Wild Blueberry Barrens are three places you can light a candle and stand inside. Each is hand-poured in small batches in Portland.
Tap a label and the shoreline above shifts to that scent.
Two sizes. One amber jar you keep.
Every candle is poured into a reusable amber glass jar. Choose the 8 oz at $34 for a nightstand or a gift, or the 14 oz at $52 for a room that deserves a longer evening. Bring your jar back and refill it for $29.

Once a month we open the studio for candle-pouring workshops. Spend time at the bench learning how a candle is made by hand, and take the experience home.
A workshop seat also makes a gift that is made, not merely bought. See the studio for upcoming sessions.
Visit the studio in Portland.
Come smell the scents before you choose. Our Portland, Maine studio shop is open Thursday to Sunday, 11am to 5pm. Stop in to meet the candles, pick a gift, or ask about the next workshop.

Small batches, steady hands.
Ember & Fen is a small studio, and every candle is hand-poured in Portland, Maine. We work in soy and in small batches, drawing our scents from the North Atlantic coast. The result is a candle that looks as natural and cozy as it smells.
