Our Mission

At Cork & Light, our mission is to reduce waste through intentional design by giving wine bottles a second life as handcrafted candles. We are committed to sustainability, mindful craftsmanship, and creating clean-burning candles that are as beautiful as they are functional.

About Cork & Light

At Cork & Light, we believe everyday objects deserve a second chance.

Each candle begins as a discarded wine bottle that is hand cut and carefully sanded, transforming it into a refined, reusable vessel. Every edge is smoothed by hand, preserving the unique character of each bottle while ensuring quality and safety.

Once complete, each candle is hand-poured in small batches using organic soy wax, chosen for its clean burn and environmentally friendly properties. Our small-batch process allows us to focus on detail, intention, and consistency from start to finish.

No two candles are exactly alike — a reflection of the bottle it came from and the hands that shaped it. More than a candle, each piece from Cork & Light is a thoughtful blend of sustainability, craftsmanship, and design, created to be enjoyed long after the flame goes out.
