Alena – Where art, design and fragrance meet.
Swiss handmade candles with a unique design. Alena candles are cast in a tin can and then hand-painted in their workshops in the heart of the canton of Fribourg. Alena means ‘to give light’ in the Fribourg dialect, the canton in which Alena has its origins. Miriam is the heart and soul of the brand.
Minimalist and bold, each Alena candle, hand-poured in a tin box, is an expression of style and uniqueness. They are as unique as you are.
In collaboration with renowned perfumers, the fragrances are subtle, captivating and memorable. Each fragrance is a little marvel, chosen for its complexity and balance.
Made in Switzerland, entirely by hand in the traditional, artisanal way.
Recyclable, environmentally friendly. The waxes are made from 100% soya wax, without pesticides or GMOs. The candles are made from a high-quality vegetable wax manufactured in the UK, chosen for its natural, environmentally-friendly properties. Unlike traditional paraffin waxes, this wax respects your health and won’t darken your home.
Fragrance without CMRs or allergens: the fragrances are developed with the utmost care and contain no volatile compounds, CMRs or allergens.
Infinitely recyclable containers: our tin cans are made in France and hand-painted in our workshop. Their tinplate material is infinitely recyclable.
