Among their selections of slow-made homewares, Provider Store's candles have garnered attention not only for their subtly rich fragrances but for the beautifully crafted vessels into which the candles are hand-poured at the label's Surrey Hills headquarters. These beautiful ceramic vessels sourced from artisans across Japan also form an important part of Provider Store's genesis story: it was a trip to Japan during which she met many of these very craftspeople that inspired Tara Bennett to start the label in 2014.

One of the label's most popular styles and one of their first, the Provider Store Daikanyama Candle comes set in a handmade deep cylinder vessel with a dark indigo glaze bringing to mind Japanese denim traditions. This textured cup houses a candle in the label's No. 5 scent 'Kumo,' combining peach, leather, smoke, and peony to evoke the sensuality of summer.
