Small in size, but every bit as charming as its larger companion. This little beeswax skep captures the classic woven shape of the traditional beehive — the upturned basket that beekeepers used for thousands of years — in a compact, beautifully detailed form.

Hand-poured from 100% pure Australian beeswax by Suz in Port Stephens, it burns on the same light spectrum as natural sunlight — the brightest, most natural light of any candle. Because it contains no synthetic fragrances, dyes, or chemical additives, pure beeswax is one of the cleanest candles you can burn indoors. A soft natural honey fragrance drifts through the room as it burns.

Its compact size makes it perfect for bonbonniere, place settings, or gifting in small groups — and it looks wonderful displayed alongside the Large Beehive Skep for a full hive arrangement. Pair it with spring blooms or a honey jar for an effortlessly beautiful display.

What is a Skep?

A Skep is the name given to the upturned woven basket traditionally used as a beehive. Skeps were widely used until the Victorian era, when more accessible and reusable hive designs took over. Because the Skep had to be destroyed to access the honey and honeycomb inside, they were labour-intensive — though some smaller beekeepers still use them today, keeping the dying art of Skep-making alive.

Displaying your Small Skep

The Small Skep looks beautiful grouped in threes or displayed alongside the Large Beehive Skep for a striking hive-inspired arrangement. Its size makes it ideal for wedding bonbonniere, table place settings, or as a sweet addition to a gift hamper.

A note on colour

Beeswax colour varies naturally from batch to batch depending on the season and what the bees have been foraging on. This is completely normal and a sign of genuine, unbleached wax.

Candle burning tips

Trim the wick to around 5 mm before each burn for the cleanest flame. Keep out of drafts, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
