SANCTUAIRE | INKWELL SCENTED BEESWAX CANDLE

Just like the magical place that is Inkwell Beach in Oak Bluffs on the island of Martha’s Vineyard, the Inkwell candle was designed to supply feelings of Freedom, Restoration, Celebration, and Wholeness. Since the late 1890s, Oak Bluffs and the Inkwell have served as places of refuge for African-Americans. With vibrant and sweet fragrance notes, each burn of the Inkwell candle will invoke memories of soul-refreshing summer mornings on the Vineyard.

Beeswax candles provide the cleanest burn of any candle and cleanse, purify and improve the air quality while they burn. The negative ions that beeswax candles emit not only remove dust, pollen and toxins from the air, but also positively affect our mood, energy and health. Enjoy this beautiful gift from nature as you enjoy the golden flame that is sure to bring inner peace and calm.

SANCTUAIRE is an inclusive wellness and lifestyle brand centered on the products, places, and practices that create sanctuary. In February 2023, SANCTUAIRE debuted the Plage Noire Collection in recognition and tribute to African-American beachfront communities across the United States.  These communities were founded as places of refuge and retreat during segregation and the Jim Crow era when Black people were forbidden from many resorts, pools and beaches.  In order to facilitate leisure and sanctuary, beach communities in places like Oak Bluffs, MA, and Sag Harbor, NY, were created.  Black families would enjoy relaxation without harassment and would return year after year for joyful communion. Through this home and fine fragrance collection, we hope to capture the essence of these beach communities - the Joy, Resistance, Peace, Resilience, and Rest that are so vital to America’s past and present stories.
