Four Candles
Rathbornes

A set of four natural beeswax 9-inch dinner candles, unscented and handmade in Dublin by the world's oldest candle company.
Founded in Dublin in 1488, Rathbornes is the world's oldest candle company. For over 500 years Rathbornes candles have illuminated the streets, homes, lighthouses and churches of Ireland. The candles they produce today are still handcrafted with many the same skilled methods which they have used since the fifteenth century.
The ideal addition to our Áras homewares collection, working perfectly with both our handblown glass and Connemara marble candlestick holders.
Each candle measures 230mm tall and 22mm in diameter.
Our Story
Clare Grennan and Laura Caffrey established Irish Design Shop in 2008. A love of Irish craft and good design led these two jewellers to set up a retail space which offered customers both. Irish craft was witnessing a revival at this time, with a new breed of Irish designer/maker producing exciting, design-led products which embraced traditional and new techniques.
