Price’s Patent Candles Ltd. began manufacturing candles in 1830.
By the end of the century Price’s dominated the nightlight market and was the largest
maker of candles in the world.
Price’s made inexpensive stearine candles that burned as well as expensive beeswax
candles and they held 114 patents for their inventions.
Price’s have a long and close association with the Royal Family from the time when
the launch of their new composite candle coincided with the wedding of Queen Victoria
and Prince Albert... today Price’s hold the Royal Warrant for His Majesty the King.
This special Royal status means we supply candles for many Royal state occasions.
Candles are not just sources of natural light but are aesthetic, fragranced and highly
designed objects in their own right.
