Bijou Soy Candle in Gold-Luster Stoneware by Susan Gordon Pottery

A generous wavy rim gives the Bijou candle the silhouette of an open flower. Hand-poured soy wax fills a handmade stoneware bowl, glazed and finished with 22K gold luster, with selectable vessel colors and two distinct fragrance choices.

“The broad, open shape is what draws me to Bijou. I would give it a clear stretch of table, where its wavy outline can be appreciated and flowers remain safely beyond the flame.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Care & Ownership

Trim the wick to 1/4 in. before lighting and keep the wax free of trimmings and debris. Set upright on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts, flowers, books, fabrics, children and pets; never leave burning unattended. Follow the candle label for each burn session, and stop with 1/2 in. of wax remaining. Extinguish without water and let the vessel and wax cool completely before moving or cleaning. Remove cooled residue gently for decorative reuse; do not scrape the gold edge or use the microwave or dishwasher. Hand wash the empty vessel with mild soap and a soft microfiber cloth, then dry carefully.

Maker / Heritage

Susan Gordon began her pottery business in a basement studio in 2013, bringing a background in ceramic sculpture and abstract painting to practical household objects. Her experience with paint still informs the gestures and surfaces of the work. In 2019 she opened a storefront and studio in Homewood, Alabama, where making and showing the pieces could sit together. The pottery passes through making, smoothing, glazing, gold decoration, sanding and a final check, with more than five pairs of hands and eyes involved. The hydrangeas outside her first garage studio became a recurring source of imagery, connecting the flowers of everyday life to the work of her hands.
