Regular price $29.99 Save $-29.99A Green Pear Candle for Characters Who Survived Something
Scents: Green Pear · Green Leaves · Cinnamon · Woods · Hand-poured in: North Carolina, USA · From: $11.99 (wax melts)
This green pear candle is fruit picked early, when it is still hard and sharp — green pear with the leaves still on the stem, cinnamon coming in low and warm, and dark woods holding the base steady.
It belongs beside epic fantasy, long series you are two thousand pages into, and every character who is defined less by what happened to them than by what they did afterwards. Like every Aarka Origins candle, it is truly handmade: hand-poured in small batches in North Carolina from 100% pure soy wax, with no paraffin and no blends.

Why Book Lovers Choose Scars Like Stars
- Truly handmade — poured, wicked, and checked by hand in North Carolina, not run off an industrial line with an "artisan" label added later.
- 100% pure soy wax — no paraffin, no blends; a clean, even burn through long reading sessions.
- Non-toxic — phthalate-free, dye-free, vegan, cruelty-free fragrance oils; safe to burn in bedrooms, nurseries, and small reading nooks.
- Lead-free cotton wick — a steady, quiet flame that will not compete with the story on the page.
- Honest pricing — wax melts from $11.99, while comparable bookish candles elsewhere often run $18–30+.
The choice to keep the pear green rather than ripe is what gives this its backbone. A ripe pear note is soft and sweet and disappears under the cinnamon; an unripe one is crisp and slightly bitter and holds its own against both the spice and the wood base. Poured and checked by hand in North Carolina from 100% pure soy.
Scars Like Stars — Frequently Asked Questions
Is the green pear candle sweet?
Lightly, but it is crisp rather than sugary. The green pear candle keeps a fresh, unripe fruit character over a warm cinnamon-and-wood base, so it works year-round rather than reading strictly as autumn.
Is this a good gift for an epic fantasy reader?
It is a good gift for one, and it suits readers who want something with warmth in it but no dessert. Wax melts from $11.99 make it easy to add to a book gift.
Is this candle handmade and 100% soy?
It is. Scars Like Stars is hand-poured in small batches at Aarka Origins' North Carolina shop from 100% pure soy wax — no paraffin, no wax blends, no dyes, and a lead-free cotton wick. The fragrance oils are phthalate-free, vegan, and never tested on animals.
Trim the wick to 1/4" before each burn and keep burns to about two hours at a time for the cleanest, most even melt pool. Browse the full book lover soy candle collection.
