Meet the founder
A florist by training after a career change in 2021 and a mother, it was after entering matrescence that the project came to life, and P'tit Pot tout Flamme came to mind. With the conviction that nothing is lost and everything is transformed.
About the brand
Created in August 2023 by Lydia, P'tit pot tout flamme is an artisanal, eco-responsible and solidarity candle made with heart in the sun, poured in Aix-en-Provence, it is made from:
- upcycled materials
- rapeseed-based plant wax
- scents from Grasse or local essential oils
- dried flowers from Marseille or the Var region
The brand is committed to the fight against poverty, supporting the Aix branch of the association UN PETIT BAGAGE D'AMOUR, which helps families (mainly mothers) in situations of severe poverty by donating €1 per candle sold. Refill and deposit services are offered. More than a candle, it is a concept aimed at committed consumers who wish to light up and share the flame of the responsible economy.
The eco-responsible impact
The rapeseed-based plant wax used is guaranteed GMO-free, biodegradable, vegan and eco-responsible. The scents used are scents from GRASSE or local organic essential oils (notably the lavender essential oil that I buy at the market, which comes from the Sainte Victoire distillery, for example). The flowers used for decoration are dried flowers that I have dried myself, which come from the VAR region or Marseille. The containers come from pottery workshops in the Aix and Marseille region or from upcycled glass jars. Deliveries are made using recycled cardboard boxes. The only person who pours the candles is guaranteed to work (for now) in good conditions.
