Welcome to Sunbird Candles, a candle studio based in Quezon City, Philippines. We’re glad to see you here! Our goal is simple: to produce beeswax candles using mostly locally sourced materials and featuring thoughtfully crafted scent blends made with essential and fragrance oils.
This project was in the planning stage in early 2020, but COVID-19 gave us plenty of time and opportunity to finally make it happen.
We chose the name “sunbird” after a particularly small, cute passerine bird endemic to the Philippines. Besides being a lively-sounding name, we love how cheerful the olive-backed sunbird sounds in particular. If you’ve ever heard a high-pitched “sweet sweet” call of a bird in your backyard or while walking around, that’s the bird we’re talking about.
We’re still fixing things up around here, but you can have a look around to explore our offerings and learn a little something extra about beeswax candles and candle care. We hope you love what you see!
