Valor & Grace
Behind the Inspiration
As a girl Joan was given a divine mission to help save her country. Her fortitude in following God’s will even to death is symbolized by French oak, prized for its incredible strength. Lavender, which calls to mind the fields of France, symbolizes grace and purity. She is celebrated by the Church as virgin and martyr.
St. Joan’s feast day is May 30.
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
Great handmade product, would buy again, love finding wholesome small businesses to support.
I have really enjoyed the “Valor and Grace”candle. It looks pretty and smells wonderful. The scent of this candle truly captures its name sake—St. Joan of Arc. This candle and all of the other candles I’ve ordered so far, have burnt evenly and lasted for a good amount of time. CORDA candles are my new favorite candles. Thank you so much!
I bought this for my soon to be daughter-in-law’s birthday (her Confirmation saint is St Joan of Arc) and this what she texted me the next day…”This St Joan candle smells sooooooo good”
I am truly enjoying my Valor and Grace candle. It has a subtle and balanced scent which is perfect for peaceful and quiet enjoyment
It was a gift for my mom, but I think it’s safe to say we all love it
I gave this to my best friend, and she loved it. The scent is beautiful. The shipping was far quicker than I expected. I’ll definitely be recommending this company to family and friends.
I gave this as a gift and she loved the scent!
I love this scent. The lavender comes through but it isn't soapy or chemical as can happen sometimes with lavender scented things. Maybe it's just because I know what the candle is meant to signify, but I swear it does put me in a more spiritually open mood. :)
The candle exceeded my expectations! The scent was divine (Joan of Arc) and as soon as I smelled it, I thought of strength, courage and femininity! Spot on. I will be coming back to buy more for friends/special occasions.
The Valor and Grace candle has a very soothing scent. It’s a great one to place near your prayer chair it is a calming fragrance.
