6 oz Candle Tin
Choose a Variant

Candle tins are a great alternative (or complement) to traditional glass candle containers. Ours have a really nice finish and include snug fitting lids. These are great for gift sets, themed sets, giveaways, and more. Also available in 2 oz, 4 oz, and 8 oz tins.

CandleScience tins are made from steel and are safe and easy to use, thanks to:

  • Raised Safety Feet that keep surfaces cool, and candle burners happy!
  • Wick Tab Outline that makes wicking a breeze.
Protective Varnish Coating

Our candle tins have a varnish coating on the inside of the tin to help protect the metal from discoloring. Keep in mind that aroma components like citrus oils, cinnamon oil, and vanillin in fragrance oils can still cause the color of the tin to shift, particularly at higher fragrances loads.

Love these

They work so well for sample fragrances. At craft shows I price them lower than my larger jars and people buy several of different fragrances for gifts or for themselves.

Perfect

I love these they are perfect and the only tins I have been able to find with little feet. The only downside is how long they have been out of stock. I fear I will only have 1 scent in 6 oz and 0 8oz by the time of my craft fair. I would go with another brand but these are the best plus the ability to pick up your order is why I love this company.

Love!

Absolutely love these little tins! They are easier to work with, in my opinion, than glass for a beginner like me. I hope they come in other colors like black, gold, rose gold, copper, etc. one day which would allow for more creativity and use in more luxury lines!

Perfect tins for a baby shower

I was worried after reading the reviews of dents/scratches but all 60 of mine were in perfect condition and they are so cute! Perfect for little gifts for baby shower and wedding guests. I highly recommend and will purchase more in the future!
