Let us take you away…

India is a land of extremes with its cities glistening capitals of glass towers, fast cars and consumer-driven lives serving as a stark contrast to the rest of the country with its quiet villages and quaint towns- places that time seems to have forgotten. Although many have marveled at the vibrant history and culture of India, it is in its people that one finds the true heart of the country. And in a country with over 1.5 billion inhabitants, there are many connections to be made and stories to be told. Our ‘From India with Love’ Collection hopes to introduce some of these individuals and tell their tales through a selection of exclusive, handmade products that are sure to play a part in your very own story. It is with this in mind that we introduce to you our revamped “From India with Love” Candle Collection.

We have travelled across the country to try and capture the essence of India in a collection of candles that embody all that Forty Red Bangles is about- beauty, sustainability and connectivity. Each candle is hand-filled with all- natural, botanical wax that is designed to propel the fragrance of pure essential oils excellently and burns smoothly and evenly. . Our chemical free candles are pure and natural and do not release harmful particulates while burning. In fact, the essential oils in them purify the surrounding air and also have a positive effect on your skin.

The candles are a available in 6 signature blends- Jodhpur, Delhi, Mumbai, Goa, Hyderabad and Pondicherry. Each candle weighs 185 gm and comes in a collectable, reusable tin.

 

Jodhpur

To the North of India, bordered by the vast Thar Desert is the oasis-like blue city of Jodhpur. A city frozen in time, Jodphur conjures up images of regal opulence, colourful desert-folk and of course, caravans of camels. With the pure essence of Black Pepper, Grapefruit and Ginger Grass, we transport you to the sweet and spicy streets of Jodphur where you can fulfil you desert daydreams.

 

Delhi

The capital city of India possesses a long lasting regal edge since the time of the Mughal empire. Lose yourself in lush rose gardens surrounding elaborate monuments that are a testament to its past glory and celebrate the throne of the largest democracy in the world. Our signature blend of cinnamon, tuberose and rosewood is a delicate reminder of this exuberant city.

 

Mumbai

The gem of the West coast of India is the metropolis of Mumbai. Birthplace of Bollywood, establishment of economy, testament to traffic and cornucopia of culture, Mumbai is always teetering on the fine line between devastation and triumph. Taking inspiration from its bustling spice markets and flocks of colorfully dressed women with bunches of jasmine in their hair, we have created a magical concoction of Mogra, Fennel and Vanilla that will take you on a flight of fancy.

 

Goa

The bright spot on the Indian coastline is the former Portuguese colony of Goa. Probably the most famous state of India, Goa is home to luxurious beaches, legendary parties and quaint backstreets lined by peaceful churches. Take a trip to this playful paradise with our cocktail of lime, coconut and patchouli.

Hyderabad

Towards the East of India is the Nizami city of Hyderabad. With a rich royal heritage, this city of pearls glistens and glows as a testament to its name. Home to a surreal Film City, fantasy becomes reality in this enigmatic meeting ground of modernity and tradition. As a tribute to Hyderabad, we bring you a masala-filled mix of Mandarin, Coriander and Champa that will leave you feeling like there’s no place else you’d rather be.

Pondicherry

To the South of India lies the quiet centre of peace and serenity that is Pondicherry. Known as the Côte d’Azur of the East, the quiet lanes of this French-influenced town are paths to enlightenment. Home to Auroville, the city of dawn, Pondicherry sees the convergence of people from all walks of life that gather together in the spirit of unity. To capture this essence, we bring you an infusion of Cardamom, Bergamot and Ylang Ylang, guaranteed to help harmonize your spirit and become one with the universe.
