Bridgewater Sweet Grace #74 Ceramic Candle 25.5 oz Soy-Blend

Ninety hours of fragrance from a candle that pulls double duty as décor — Bridgewater Candle's Sweet Grace #74 Ceramic Candle earns its place on any shelf long before the last inch of wax is gone. The 25.5 oz soy-blend is poured in Spartanburg, South Carolina, and housed in a pink checkered ceramic vessel that reads as intentional rather than novelty. Sweet Grace has been Bridgewater's best-selling fragrance long enough to prove it's not a trend, and this oversized format is the most generous way to live with it.

The scent itself is warm and feminine without veering into overwhelming — a blend that works in a bedroom, a living room, or anywhere you want a room to feel like someone actually lives in it. The ceramic vessel is reusable, so once the wax is spent you're left with a container worth keeping.

• 25.5 oz soy-blend wax — a larger pour than most decorative candles, which means fewer trips to reorder
• 90-hour burn time — rated for extended, consistent fragrance throw over many weeks of regular use
• Reusable pink checkered ceramic vessel — the glazed finish holds up after the candle is gone; repurpose it as a planter, utensil holder, or storage jar
• Sweet Grace #74 fragrance — Bridgewater Candle's long-running number-one scent, known for a warm, lightly floral character
• Poured in Spartanburg, South Carolina — domestic production with consistent quality control batch to batch
• Fitted lid included — keeps dust off the wax between burns and helps preserve the fragrance

Care & cleaning: Trim the wick to about ¼ inch before each burn — this is the single most effective thing you can do to extend burn time and prevent soot from building up on the ceramic. On the first burn, let the wax pool reach the edges of the vessel before extinguishing; skipping this step can cause tunneling that wastes wax along the sides. Keep the candle away from drafts, which cause uneven burns and excess smoke. Once the Bridgewater Sweet Grace soy-blend candle has burned down, clean the ceramic vessel by pouring boiling water into it to melt any remaining wax, then wipe it clean with a paper towel. A little dish soap and warm water finishes the job. The pink checkered ceramic is sturdy enough to handle regular use as a household container once it's repurposed — a second life that makes the original investment feel even more worthwhile.
