What people ask the atelier

Choose the size and colour on the product page and press “Add to cart”: the piece goes into the Maison Butter shop’s cart, where you complete the order. Prices are shown in RSD as the shop publishes them. Pieces without a published price are ordered through an enquiry, and the atelier replies by e-mail.

They are handled by the Maison Butter shop together with your order. If anything is unclear before you order, write to office@maisonbutter.rs or call +381 62 545 075.

Plant-based waxes. Most candles are hand-poured with premium soy wax (Diamond, Muse, Ramonda, Le Salon, Candy, Bird leaf); Diamond Pillow and Caro Diamond with natural plant wax; Poeny with 100% soy wax produced in the EU, biodegradable. The Scented Bars are made with a plant-based wax blend.

Cotton. Poeny’s wicks are pure cotton, free of lead and zinc. The number of wicks depends on the vessel: one for Veil XS, Muse, Ramonda and Bird leaf, three for Veil S, Diamond Pillow, Caro Diamond, Le Salon and Candy, five for Veil L and Crystal L.

The approximate burn times published for each piece: Diamond Pillow and Caro Diamond about 50 hours, Bird leaf about 45, Muse about 40, Le Salon and Candy about 35, Ramonda about 30. For the other vessels, ask the atelier.

In the atelier in Belgrade: designed and handcrafted in Serbia, hand-poured in small batches.

Yes — Maison Butter vessels are designed to be refilled, reused and enjoyed for years. Bird leaf, Diamond Pillow and Caro Diamond, for example, can be refilled with the same fragrance or a new one. Write to the atelier with the vessel you have.

Keep it. Muse becomes a vase or a storage container, Candy a jar for jewellery, chocolates or sugar cubes, Bird leaf a box for jewellery or tea, Madrid a vase or a perfume bottle — or have it refilled.

Place or hang the bar in a wardrobe, drawer or other enclosed space, away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture. Do not place it directly on fabrics or polished surfaces, as prolonged contact may leave an oily or wax residue. When the fragrance softens, move it to a smaller space. For external fragrance use only.

The Candle Care Set is meant to give you everything you need to care for your candles and extend their life. Ask the atelier about it.
