St. Joseph the Worker | Leather + Sawdust
These rugged scents of leather and sawdust are inspired by St. Joseph the Worker. He is the patron saint of the universal Church, workers, carpenters, fathers, travelers, and the dying, and his prayers are frequently invoked by those seeking employment and those trying to buy or sell a house. His feast day is May 1.
Behind the Inspiration
St. Joseph lovingly provided for his family through the work of his hands. Scripture tells us Jesus was "the carpenter's son" and Joseph is often depicted with the tools of his trade. The leather of his work apron and the sawdust from his cuttings inspired this candle.
St. Joseph the Worker, pray for us.
Holy Men collection | 45+ hour burn time | 6 oz. candle
You’ll get the cleanest, longest, and safest burn from your candle with a few simple steps:
- Always trim the wick before lighting to 1/8”–1/4”
- Burn until the melted wax reaches edge to edge, or very nearly, to reduce tunneling
- Burn only up to 4 hours at a time
- Always keep a burning candle in sight, away from flammable materials, out of drafts, out of reach of pets and children, and on a heat-safe surface
- Keep out of direct sunlight
What a beautiful candle. I bought 4 of them and gave all three away on the Feast of St. Joseph the Worker and kept one for myself. Its in my kitchen and the smell is nice. I also purchased Battle Cry, Hey who does need St. Michael on our side and I purchased Divine Mercy. Thank you so much and I am sure I will be ordering more in the near future. God bless you in your ministry.
Giving this to my dad for Father's Day! Looks great and what better a saint to share with a father than St. Joseph!
I've ordered a few candles from Anna at Corda and they have all been wonderful! They each bring a unique scent and ambiance with them that has been a great addition to my home. I will definitely be ordering more in the near future!
I was intrigued by this candle. Then I decided it was necessary for the Consecration we were reading. I was not disappointed! Love the scent! Love that it's for St. Joseph, and love the carpenter shop scents. Beautiful!
These beautiful candles are so "purely" fragrant they smell heavenly.
